Klagenfurt am Woerthersee, Austria

Institute for Robotics and Flexible Production We develop application-oriented solutions for flexible digitalised production: from functional modelling and simulation to economic evaluation and system implementation. We also focus on performance optimisation and a valid robot safety assessment. The research group for Industrial-Robotsystem-Technologies provides a wide range of technologies for innovative robotics, with a focus on robot-based production. Physical robot safety, ensuring the safety of humans while interacting with the machine, is the central thematic focus of the ROBOTICS Evaluation Lab. The ROBOTICS Training Center (RTC) meets the growing demand from industry and business for further education in the field of robotics.

About me

Dr Michael Rathmair studied electrical engineering and information technology at the TU Wien and graduated in 2018 with a doctorate degree from the Institute of Computer Technology. In addition, he was a research associate and integrated in various national and international research projects, as well as in university teaching. Since March 2019 he is working as post-doc researcher and technical test center manager of the ROBOTICS Evaluation Lab (REL) at the Institute for ROBOTICS of the JOANNEUM RESEARCH Forschungsgesellschaft mbH . In October 2021 he took over the lead of the Research group Industrial-Robotsystem-Technologies. Moreover he has also assumed the function of Deputy Director of the Institute ROBOTICS since April 2023. His professional interests are primarily in the research and development of verification, analysis and testing processes for robot applications in the sense of a flexible cyber-physical system. In order to be able to optimally integrate these processes into modern day-to-day production, he is also actively involved in the national and international committees for the robot safety standard ISO 10218.
