As **Austria's largest research and technology organisation** for applied research, we are dedicated to make substantial contributions to solving the major challenges of our time, climate change and digitisation. To achieve our goals, we rely on our specific research, development and technology competencies, which are the basis of our commitment to excellence in all areas. With our open culture of innovation and our motivated, international teams, we are working to position AIT as Austria's leading research institution at the highest international level and to make a positive contribution to the economy and society.
Our **Center for Vision, Automation & Control** is looking for new Ingenious Partner for our location in **Vienna**. The **Center for Vision, Automation & Control **exploits the opportunities provided by automation and digitisation to initiate and advance innovation for industry, primarily in Austria and Europe. Our main goal is to take away the monotonous, heavy, difficult and dangerous aspects of people’s work through innovation. We help our partners by making technical systems more robust, reliable, flexible and easy to use. At the same time we increase the resource efficiency of industrial processes by reducing waste, product failures and emissions.
Our Competence Unit "**Assistive & Autonomous Systems**" focuses on the development and deployment of assistive and autonomous systems, particularly unmanned aircrafts and land-based mobile machines, in cooperation with national and international research organisations and companies.
