Fraunhofer IGD in Rostock
Fraunhofer-Institut für Graphische Datenverarbeitung IGD
The Rostock location can look back on almost 20 years of research work. Since its founding in January 1992, Rostock has consistently built on its already well-established expertise in Visual Computing, which covers the areas of multimedia communication, systematic handling of knowledge, mobile multimedia applications, and entertainment. It also provides solutions and applications that aid the interaction between humans and computers. In order to further improve its position on the research market in the future, researchers in Rostock are focusing on more specialized topics and on the key industries in the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. These include maritime business, information technology, software development as well as agriculture, and tourism.
