Teaching and Research Centre for Vehicle Safety (LFF)

Welcome to the website of the Vehicle Safety Research Centre (LFF) at Ostfalia University of Applied Sciences.

Since 2011, the LFF has been combining innovative research projects with modern teaching at the Faculty of Automotive Engineering. On this page you can find out about our facilities, current research projects and the expertise available at the LFF. We hope you enjoy it and look forward to hearing from you.

Research group leader Prof. Dr Harald Bachem

Thanks to vehicle automation and artificial intelligence, holistic vehicle safety increasingly results from the targeted combination of passive and active safety measures.
