About this member
The Barkhausen Institute is an independent research institute in Dresden that works closely with the Technical University of Dresden and focuses on the core fields of the Internet of Things (IoT). The institute conducts application-oriented basic research with a time horizon of five to ten years before market launch. As an innovation center for IoT technologies, it is the point of contact for local and global industry.
In addition, the Barkhausen Institute attaches particular importance to the communication of research results and research methods. Discussing technological developments with the public is part of the day-to-day work of all researchers.
The Barkhausen Institut conducts research on topics related to the trustworthiness of the Internet of Things. The goal is to create so-called trust anchors as part of the devices of the Internet of Things. To this end, we are working on hardware, software and transmission technologies. Our research focuses on secure operating systems and secure processor architectures. In addition, we investigate how radio technologies can contribute to increasing the security of the overall system, e.g. in the generation of cryptographic keys or reliable positioning by radar.
