The Wernher von Braun Center for Advanced Research is a private, non-profit institution founded in 1997, accredited by MCTI since 2002 and an EMBRAPII Unit accredited in the area of Internet of Things (IoT) and Industry 4.0.
Integrated Delivery Capability
Complete solutions, from chip to field.
Von Braun goes beyond technological development: we structure the entire ecosystem needed for innovation to happen. We operate from the industrial supply chain to semiconductor manufacturing, certified equipment, cloud platforms and field operations — always aligned with our clients’ strategic objectives.
Digitization, Automation, and Smart Manufacturing
We deliver rapid digital transformation and data-driven operations management through proprietary technology solutions and control over device design and manufacturing. This strategic capability enables us to create customized systems for the digitization, integration, and automation of processes at any stage of the value chain—across primary, secondary, or tertiary sectors—making our clients’ operations smarter, more profitable, and more efficient.
Mobility and Data Analytics
Leveraging our global experience in high-impact mobility systems across all continents, we offer unique tools for the development of advanced mobility platforms. These include enhanced features for connectivity, flexibility, integration, and new mobility services—enabling innovative business models that are shaping the global landscape. Our approach spans from semiconductor chip design and production to hardware components, system integration, and data intelligence, delivering actionable insights in sectors such as transportation, logistics, and user mobility.
Identification, Tracking, and Sensing
With expertise across all stages of industrial and operational design and implementation, the Center delivers virtually any physical integration of IoT electronic components into “things.” We develop differentiated products, services, and systems for identification, tracking, and sensing in a wide range of applications. Our deep experience includes semiconductors, devices, gateways, tags, antennas, hardware, sensors, software, and complete integrated systems—ensuring commercially viable solutions that allow clients to focus on their core services while we structure the enabling technologies.
Systems and solutions powered by artificial intelligence.
In the context of Industry 4.0 and Manufacturing 4.0, as well as applied IoT, from startups and micro-enterprises to large corporations, systems and solutions driven by Artificial Intelligence (AI) involve the structured application of various techniques and technologies to generate value from data. Key applications include intelligent real-time asset monitoring, enabling early fault detection and predictive maintenance, as well as process automation and decision support. Furthermore, the implementation of these solutions requires attention to data security and integrity, as well as the strategic management of risks associated with their use.
