Swarming
The Semicon Learning Community was established through the national Beethoven Fund and consists of four “micro” learning communities focused on accelerating sustainable innovation within the semiconductor industry: Talent Development, Critical Raw Materials, Robotics, and Swarm Drones. Within these communities, students, researchers, companies, and societal partners collaborate on urgent challenges that are decisive for the future of high-tech manufacturing.
The learning communities combine practice-oriented research, interdisciplinary collaboration, and learning by doing. This approach not only leads to innovative solutions, but also helps develop the skills required in a rapidly changing technological sector.
Together, the Semicon micro Learning Communities form an experimental environment in which learning, innovation, and sustainability go hand in hand, creating impact both within the industry and for the next generation of Semicon professionals.

In this video, you'll discover how students, researchers, and industry partners collaborate within the Semicon Learning Community to develop the technologies and innovations of tomorrow.
Discover the possible projects within these themes:
The business behind swarms
Robots (including drones) are used more and more in farming. But what if instead of one smart robot, we had lots of 'stupid' robots working together to get things done? Is that financially viable in any way, or not? We want you to explore this topic!
Industrial Design Engineering -> exploring vision in product design and mapping existing products and experiences
Business administration -> analyzing business models and operations
TPM -> policy and ethics analysis
Recovering broken swarm robots
Swarms consist of large amount of 'stupid' robots, that by themselves don't really know where they are or hów they are. They suddenly break down, without anyone knowing where they are, polluting our planet. How to retrieve those robots? Or design them to not be retrieved in the first place?
Industrial Design Engineering -> product and system design
Materials Science -> material analysis and design
Mechanical Engineering -> localization and mechanical design
Environmental Science -> life cycle analysis, polution analysis
