What Is Adaptive Technology?
Adaptive technology is a decisive, future-oriented technology that can optimize, while optimizing the economy, safety and comfort of the product, reduce or even avoid shocks and unwanted distortions and noise. Products and methods using adaptive technology can gain a decisive competitive advantage.

- Adaptive technology is a decisive, future-oriented technology that can optimize, while optimizing the economy, safety and comfort of the product, reduce or even avoid shocks and unwanted distortions and noise. Products and methods using adaptive technology can gain a decisive competitive advantage.
- The concept of adaptive technology describes a new class of "smart components / intelligent structures". These intelligent components have a mechanical characteristic of active adaptation and target-optimized adjustment when working conditions change. This active component meets the requirements for improving the mechanical, efficiency, performance and other characteristics of the system. Here, in addition to selecting materials, expanding functions and improving comfort on the premise of economy, it also includes safety issues, such as optimization of collision characteristics or damage monitoring.
- Adaptive technology was first developed as a basic research at the German Aerospace Institute in the early 1990s. As an industry-independent structural technology, adaptive technology is becoming increasingly important. The purpose of adaptive technology is to influence the structure of the system. By influencing the structure, users get a new technology for product optimization. Since the earliest research and development started in the aerospace industry, the focus of application of adaptive technology has shifted to transportation technology (mainly automobile manufacturing) and tool machinery manufacturing. Its field of application is constantly expanding.
- The application fields of adaptive technology include basic knowledge and application knowledge. The basic knowledge involves solid physics, materials science, electromechanics, medical technology, aerospace, and optical communications. Application knowledge involves mechanical equipment manufacturing, robotics, transportation machinery, electronic equipment, control technology, and signal processing. In the above fields, adaptive technology is applied to the structures, drivers, sensors, and regulator systems of active structural systems. If traditional passive electromechanical methods are applied, it is difficult to achieve product production and optimization, but the principle of "autonomous regulation" makes technical and economic feasibility realistic. The introduction of adaptive technology in the development of technology systems is the basis for realizing a new class of intelligent and future-oriented products.
- If adaptive technology, as a complex technology, can be more securely mastered, it will also be of great significance in economics and politics, because the technology will not be copied at least in the short term. As a result, adaptive technology has also played a positive role in stabilizing Germany's economic status.
