In the Innovation and Demo Space (IDS) at HUN-REN SZTAKI (https://sztaki.hun-ren.hu/en) researchers, students and industrial partners can meet with machines, methods, and innovation. The demonstrations are related to autonomous vehicles, aerial vehicles, and mobile robots as well as components of production systems. All the demonstrations are developed in cooperation with universities, or industrial actors. IDS can make a meaningful and practice-oriented contribution to facilitate the transfer of advanced technologies and the cooperation between academic and industrial sectors. IDS is also an innovation and demonstration space of the National Laboratory for Autonomous Systems (https://autonom.nemzetilabor.hu).
Three institutions - HUN-REN SZTAKI, Budapest University of Technology and Economics and the Szechenyi Istvan University - with excellent research capacity and research teams are joined together by theNational Laboratory for Autonomous Systems. In addition to their research and development effectiveness, they also have an outstanding performance in training the upcoming research generation. The triple objective of the National Laboratory is sustainable and high-level research, exploitable results, and a developing research network in the fields of autonomous road vehicles, aircrafts, drones and mobile robotics.
