IMA defended its participation in the European project StorAIge – Embedded storage elements on next MCU generation ready for AI on the edge at the final review in Prague.
The Board of Reviewers awarded the results of both Czech partners of the project with grade V – excellent results of international importance.
The project was co-financed by PPP from the European Commission, the Ministry of Education and Science and the participants’ own co-financing.
On 21 and 22 January 2025, the final evaluation of the StorAIge project took place at the European level. The efforts of the entire international consortium, as well as the achieved goals and milestones, were evaluated very positively. Subsequently, a national final review took place on 24 April 2025, chaired by a representative of the national provider (MoEYS). In parallel, the review of the Czech partner UTIA also took place.
The main objective of StorAIge was the development and industrialisation of 28nm FDSOI semiconductor technologies and the next generation of world-class Embedded Phase Change Memory (ePCM), enabling the prototyping of high performance, low power and secure System on Chip (SoC) solutions enabling competitive Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Edge applications. As part of the project, IMA has supplied a specific OEM gesture recognition module as a demonstrator of new chips developed under the project that support AI-based applications. The gesture recognition module reflects the requirements of a Tier 1 automotive manufacturer and is a demonstration of the anticipated use of StorAIge chips in the automotive industry.
SicherheitsExpo Munich 2026 offered a clear view of what customers and partners are looking for in modern access control: flexible installation, reliable smart locking technologies, secure data handling, and solutions that are easy to understand in practice.
Over two days in Munich, conversations with visitors from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland showed strong interest in smart locker systems, battery-powered locks, wireless access technologies, and the growing role of cybersecurity in everyday access management. The event also confirmed that live product demonstrations remain one of the most effective ways to explain how modern access solutions can solve real customer challenges.
SicherheitsExpo 2026 was an important opportunity for IMA to showcase what modern access control can look like when security, product quality, and innovation come together.
On July 1-2, IMA was represented at the show by our DACH sales representative, Christian Friedrich, together with Jaroslav Budka and Žaneta Dubnická.
