Beyond current technological boundaries

As we look beyond current technological boundaries and focus our gaze on future domains, new challenges come our way. Think of increasing digitalization and societal awareness regarding sustainable mobility. Unmanned and autonomous systems can offer a solution for transporting people and goods in urban areas. The MITC, located on the NLR site in Marknesse, can play an essential role in this.
