New Rail Whitepaper: "AI in Requirements Engineering – From Risk Factor to Strategic Advantage"

Requirements are the foundation of safe and successful railway systems. But defining, analyzing and verifying requirements can be complex, time-consuming and prone to ambiguity.

So, how can artificial intelligence support requirements engineering without compromising quality or human oversight?

Our new whitepaper explores how AI can help requirements engineers:
1. Use AI effectively in requirements elicitation, analysis, verification and formalization
2. Improve quality early on by identifying ambiguities, conflicts and gaps before they become costly
3. Unlock new opportunities while understanding the limitations and keeping human expertise in the loop

Using a practical example from the railway industry, the whitepaper shows how AI-assisted requirements engineering can make development processes more efficient while maintaining high standards of quality and safety.

Generative KI im Engineering: Chance oder Risiko?

Generative KI verändert das System- und Software-Engineering grundlegend. Doch gerade in sicherheitskritischen Branchen wie der Bahntechnik gilt: Nicht alles, was technisch möglich ist, ist auch sinnvoll und sicher einsetzbar.

Wo liegen die Chancen von AI-assisted Engineering? Welche Stolpersteine gibt es – von Qualitätssicherung und Traceability über Human Oversight bis hin zu Compliance und Datenschutz? Und wie lässt sich KI sinnvoll in bestehende Engineering-Prozesse integrieren?

Im Vortrag „AI-assisted Engineering – Generative KI im System- und Software-Engineering in der Praxis“ zeigt Dr. Dominik Holling praxisnah, welche Anwendungsfälle bereits heute möglich sind, wo Grenzen liegen und worauf Unternehmen beim Einsatz generativer KI achten sollten.

Wie sieht der Arbeitsalltag in einem Technologieunternehmen aus? Und was steckt eigentlich hinter Elektroniklabor, Temperaturwechselkammer und Showroom? 🔍

Vergangene Woche waren 9 Schülerinnen und Schüler der 8. Klassen der IGS Rheinzabern im Rahmen ihrer Betriebserkundung bei ITK Engineering zu Gast.

Neben einem Einblick in unser Unternehmen ging es vor allem darum, Technik und unterschiedliche berufliche Wege greifbar zu machen.
Dazu gehörten: 💡
• ein persönlicher Erfahrungsbericht vom Schüler zum heutigen Berufsalltag bei ITK
• ein Rundgang durch unser Elektroniklabor mit EMV-Prüfkammer, Lebensdauerraum mit Temperatur- und Feuchtekammern, Werkstatt und Musterbau
• praktische Tipps zu Bewerbung und Vorstellungsgespräch
• ein Besuch unseres Showrooms mit Einblicken in verschiedene technische Themen und Projekte

Dabei blieb auch Zeit für Fragen und den direkten Austausch mit unseren Kolleginnen und Kollegen. Danke an Annika, Harry und Patrick. 🙌

Vielen Dank an die Schülerinnen und Schüler sowie ihre Begleitung für den Besuch und das Interesse. Wir hoffen, dass der Vormittag einige hilfreiche Einblicke für die weitere berufliche Orientierung gegeben hat.

ITK Engineering GmbH renews partnerships with Forze Delft and BCN eMotorsport 🏎️💻⚡

We are extending our technical partnership with Forze Hydrogen Racing and BCN eMotorsport for another year!

As partners in development, we are supporting both student-led teams from the TU Delft and Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - UPC with our engineering expertise. Through bi-weekly teams meetings or workshops, our experts collaborate closely with the students to tackle system engineering challenges, optimize software integration, and troubleshoot technical bottlenecks.

Here is how both teams are pioneering the future of mobility:
🌿Forze Hydrogen Racing: They design, build, and race high-performance, zero-emission hydrogen-electric prototypes directly against conventional, fossil-fueled GT sports cars in an official racing series. Their ultimate vision is to prove that hydrogen fuel cell technology can match the extreme performance and reliability demands of motorsport. With developments like their dual fuel cell system and advanced vehicle dynamics, they are redefining the boundaries of what is possible.

⚡BCN eMotorsport: As the first Spanish electric & driverless team, they are pushing the boundaries of autonomous electric racing. Their car is uniquely engineered to compete in both manual and autonomous categories. Weighing just 200 kg with a total torque of around 1400Nm it can deliver spectacular vehicle performance on track.

We are glad to continue sharing our engineering passion and look forward to another year of successful collaboration, shared learning, and innovation on the racetrack! 🤝🚀

Collaboration in action: Judging, cheering, and connecting at Formula Student Boxberg

We spent an amazing time at this year’s Formula Student driving and application event in Boxberg. Between July 3rd and 4th, the test track was packed with high-speed action, teamwork, and of course, plenty of engineering.

Our ITK duck 🦆 was busy, too. It didn't just grab a legendary Boxberg Kebab but also made a new friend from halfway across the world: the mascot of University of Auckland Formula SAE Team.

On July 4th, our colleague Christopher acted as a judge at the Design Event, evaluation the innovative concepts and cars of the three teams: High Speed Karlsruhe, Einstein Motorsport and Auckland. It’s always great to discuss different technical approaches with the students.

We also got to cheer on our sponsored team municHMotorsport as they put their hard work to the test on track. 🏁

A huge thanks to Bosch Engineering GmbH, and especially to Daniela, for organizing yet another great event!

Our Healthcare team is on the road again – or rather, on the rails, heading to London via the Eurostar through the Channel Tunnel 🚝. This week we’re at the Royal Geographical Society, right in the middle of the Hamlyn Symposium on Medical Robotics.

It’s great to see how many different perspectives come together here 💡: researchers, clinicians, and industry experts, all working towards the same goal of advancing medical robotics.

At ITK Engineering GmbH, medical robotics is about much more than technology. It brings together people and disciplines such as kinematics, dynamics, control engineering, signal processing, and software development. It’s where mechanical, electrical, and software engineers meet to solve some of healthcare’s most complex challenges. And what truly drives us: We get to contribute to innovative medical products that make a real difference in people’s lives ❤️.

If you’re attending, stop by our booth – we’d love to connect and hear about your ideas of advanced medical robotics.

A special shout-out to Tobias, Nehal and Thilo, powering through two busy days 👏 – all while tackling the London summer heat ☀️🌡️. We really appreciate your dedication and efforts!

Medical robotics requires far more than transferring industrial robotics technologies into a healthcare environment. Successful development depends on seamlessly integrating software, mechanics, and electronics – combined with a deep understanding of clinical workflows, usability, safety, and regulatory requirements 📋🎯

One example is human-robot interaction. Healthcare professionals need robotic systems that can be positioned intuitively, precisely, and with minimal physical effort, even during long and demanding procedures. Achieving this requires sophisticated system capabilities such as weight compensation, force sensing, and intention recognition, all tailored to the unique needs of medical applications. ✨

These challenges highlight why robotics expertise must be combined with deep medical device know-how and regulatory compliance to create systems that truly meet the needs of healthcare professionals and patients.

Meet us at the Hamlyn Symposium on Medical Robotics in London next week. Our robotics experts will be at our booth📍, ready to share our approach to developing next-generation medical robotic systems and answer all your questions. See you there! 👋

The Hamlyn Symposium on Medical Robotics brings together an international community from clinical practice, research, and industry and provides a leading platform for exchange on current developments and innovation in medical robotics. Through keynotes, workshops, exhibitions, and live demonstration...
