The 2-HORISONS project (2-wards Hybrid and Organic Electronics: International Development of Sensor Nodes) is a cluster project funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) for the internationalization of clusters and networks. Together with international partner organizations, the leading cluster partners of 2HORISONS are working on a standardized technology platform for printed sensor fields. Spatially resolving, printed multi-sensor technology is applied to light, thin and mechanically flexible substrates using additive printing processes and combined with classic electronics integrated on the substrate. The resulting high-performance, resource-saving, and costeffective technology can thus be used in promising application areas such as wearable electronics, and Internet of Things. InnovationLab GmbH (iL) is the joint platform for research and knowledge transfer at the interface of academia and industry in Heidelberg bridging the gap between Science and Business. iL is a one-stop shop for printed electronics, providing state-of-the-art infrastructure along with comprehensive expertise in materials, processes, and printing technologies to develop novel products. iL also supports numerous research and industrial partners at its lab and fabrication facility, an interdisciplinary environment featuring 6200m2, including 700m2 state-of-the-art cleanroom.
