Greasy streaks and traces on stainless steel and metal surfaces are not only unsightly but also attack the surface. A research project at the Fraunhofer Institute for Microstructure of Materials and Systems IMWS therefore has plans to develop a highly effective nanocoating to avoid fingerprints.

Scientists are developing a self-healing clear coat that is expected to make scratches in the car body disappear with the help of bio-based polymers and a new operating principle.

Scientists at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) are developing an augmented reality (AR)-based assistance system that should make it easier for engineers to build and maintain aircraft tanks.
