Hannover Messe: University of Stuttgart presents innovations in construction, simulation, quantum tech and mobility

Lydia Lehmann Stabsstelle Hochschulkommunikation
Universität Stuttgart

    At Hannover Messe 2025, the University of Stuttgart will showcase groundbreaking interdisciplinary research and innovative transfer projects. From March 31 to April 4, researchers and a start-up in the field of quantum technologies as well as the Clusters of Excellence IntCDC and SimTech will be presenting their innovations and pioneering solutions at the joint stand of the state of Baden-Württemberg (Hall 15, Stand A06). Other highlights include the student space flight group KSat and the InnovationCampus ICM with sustainable future technologies.

    “Hannover Messe provides a unique platform to showcase the University of Stuttgart's outstanding interdisciplinary research and its potential applications to both the public and industry," says Rector Prof. Peter Middendorf. “This year's motto 'Shaping the future with technology' reflects our vision of 'Intelligent systems for a sustainable society' - we are actively shaping the future with our research and knowledge and technology transfer and developing solutions for key transformation processes.”

    Quantum research for tomorrow

    The Center for Integrated Quantum Science and Technology (IQST) unites leading research institutions from the natural and engineering sciences to advance cutting-edge quantum technologies. Prof. Stefanie Barz's research group at the University of Stuttgart is focusing on photonic chips - the ideal platform for quantum computers and networks. With the speed of light and miniaturized processors, they enable robust, scalable quantum information technology. Visitors can experience a quantum computer and ultra-modern laboratories virtually.

    The spin-off SpinMagIC will be presenting its portable quantum sensor for real-time detection of free radicals - a technological breakthrough that enables applications in food quality, healthcare, battery applications and materials science. At Hannover Messe, the EXIST-funded founders are seeking pilot users to collaboratively test the sensor.

    Rethinking sustainable construction

    The Cluster of Excellence “Integrative Computational Design and Construction for Architecture” (IntCDC) at the University of Stuttgart is researching the foundations for sustainable, resource-conserving and climate-positive construction of the future. The focus is on digital technologies, robot-assisted construction methods and renewable building materials. An interdisciplinary "co-design" approach integrates methods, processes, and systems to develop demonstrative buildings, allowing for the validation of research findings and the practical testing of innovative construction techniques. Examples include the hybrid flax pavilion and the Wangen Tower, the first accessible building made from self-forming timber components, for the 2024 State Garden Show. A model of its predecessor, the Urbach Tower, can be seen at the Hannover Messe.

    Simulation: A key technology for the future

    An interactive sandbox from the Cluster of Excellence „Data-Integrated Simulation Science“ (SimTech) at the University of Stuttgart invites visitors to adjust parameters like wave height or sea level, demonstrating how simulations enhance the understanding of complex systems and support informed decision-making. By combining classic modelling with data-driven methods, SimTech develops innovative solutions for social and technological challenges - from sustainable energy production and material design to personalized medical predictions.

    Space travel you can touch

    The student small satellite group at the University of Stuttgart KSat e.V. inspires with innovative space projects. With their ferrofluid experiments, which were also tested on the International Space Station (ISS), the students want to find out how magnetic fluids reduce wear and friction and make future space technologies less maintenance-intensive and more sustainable. Other KSat highlights include the CubeSat SOURCE— a shoebox-sized satellite developed in collaboration with the Institute of Space Systems (IRS) at the University of Stuttgart. Set to launch in 2026, it will collect data for meteor observation and other research. Additionally, the ATHENE rover project showcases advancements in space robotics for future missions.

    Future technologies for mobility and the circular economy

    The InnovationCampus Mobility of the Future (ICM) is a joint research platform of the University of Stuttgart and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) with a vision for sustainable and emission-free mobility of the future. At the Baden-Württemberg International stand (Hall 13, Stand C78), ICM will showcase an AI-powered inspection system for electronics manufacturing. It optimizes the recycling of printed circuit boards by combining various test procedures, evaluating results in real time and initiating targeted repair, reuse or recycling measures. The system thus contributes to a resource-conserving and profitable circular economy. The ICM will also be showcasing the Mini-eVee miniature vehicle, a test platform for new communication, control and drive concepts.

    Networking and promoting cooperation

    The University of Stuttgart's TRACES Transfer Center, which supports start-up projects by university members along with knowledge and technology transfer, and members of the Office of the Rectorate, will also be present in Hanover to strengthen existing collaborations with business, society, and politics, while forging new partnerships.
