In September 2024, the 23rd Styrian Workshop on Automatic Control was held at Retzhof Castle. Industry professionals and academics presented on current topics in control engineering and automation. As part of the workshop, participants enjoyed a guided tour of the Botanical Garden in Graz as a social event.

On April 17, 2024 was once again Open Lab day at the institute. Live demos of lab experiments, topics for bachelor and master theses, and current research projects were presented.

The valuable and long term support of the company KS Engineers enabled the setup of a test bed for automotive applications at the Institute of Automation and Control. The test bed is already in action in the course of various student projects studying and developing, for example, modern wheel slip controllers. The picture shows Robert Bauer (from KS Engineers) and Markus Reichhartinger (from the institute) celebrating a first operation of the test bed with the new hardware sponsored by KS Engineers.

Markus Tranninger was awarded for the best presentation at the 54. Regelungstechnisches Kolloquium, Boppard, Germany, 02/2020.
