Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IISIn 2008, the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft and Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nürnberg opened the Erlangen International AudioLabs®. The center employs an international team of scientists working on audio and multimedia. The AudioLabs are unique worldwide in both mission and international approach: At this facility, university scientists develop new technologies for digital processing of multimedia content with Fraunhofer IIS staff and visiting researchers from around the world. The collaborative venture was intended for at least ten years. Creative synergies between researchers from several disciplines, combined with the many years of audio compression experience at Fraunhofer IIS, drive future research topics and guarantee continuous innovations.
One of the first subjects to receive particular attention was music and speech processing – e.g. for the development of telephone or conferencing systems that offer CD-quality sound.
