Automation and networking in freight transport - effects on the logistics industry


The automation and networking of transport will bring changes to the logistics industry. In the ATLaS project (Automated and networked movement in Logistics – opportunities for greater added value), scientists from the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum fuer Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) and the Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH) are investigating how these changes will affect freight transport.

ATLaS is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (BMVI).
