Mobile Machinery

Ensuring food safety for a growing global population while addressing the impacts of climate change is one of the key challenges facing modern agriculture. At the same time, labor shortages, increasing efficiency demands, and the need for safer field operations are driving the adoption of new technologies. Autonomous machines and AI-enhanced applications have the potential to help farmers meet these challenges by optimizing resource use and automating complex tasks.

CEO Talks is a quarterly format by TTTECH that explores key technologies and trends across industries. One of these is the shift from automation to autonomy, which is closely linked to the challenges industries are facing – from the energy transition to labor shortages, and sustainability demands.

TTCONTROL expands physical AI, autonomy, and development capabilities for next-generation off-highway machinery 

The Autonomous Main Event brings together decision-makers, innovators, and industry leaders from across the global mobility ecosystem to explore the latest developments in autonomous systems, AI, robotics, and software-defined vehicles. The event provides a unique platform for shaping the future of autonomy through thought leadership, collaboration, and real-world industry insights.

TTCONTROL is a joint venture of TTTECH and HYDAC. TTTECH's talk format CEO Talks highlights future applications, trends, and solutions. In the latest edition, Janosch Fauster, Director of the Application Development Center at TTCONTROL, joined Georg Kopetz, CEO and co-founder of TTTECH to discuss how next-generation computing architectures, software lifecycle management, and cybersecurity are enabling the transition from automation to autonomy.

TTCONTROL will be a gold sponsor and actively participate in Off-Road Autonomy & Robotics 2026 the premier event for leaders in autonomous and robotic off-highway vehicles that brings together experts in autonomy, edge AI, sensing, and software-defined machinery to shape the future of off-road mobility. 

Celebrating 25 years of innovation, TTCONTROL has evolved into a globally active technology company built on long term partnerships, technical excellence and a clear focus on innovation.

At ICRA 2026, TTControl will exhibit together with TTTECH Industrial and TTTECH Aerospace, showcasing joint expertise across industries—while putting a clear spotlight on MotionAI.MotionAI – The Future of Intelligent Automation

Discover the latest innovations shaping the future of off-highway machinery. At iVT Köln, we will showcase:

Off-highway machinery operates in demanding environments with low visibility and tight spaces, requiring operators to always remain focused and alert. As automation advances, the role of the operator and operator assistance systems is evolving.

The off-highway machinery market is experiencing a shift, driven by evolving customer expectations and service demands (e.g., predictive maintenance, lower operating cost, more connected machinery), skilled labor shortage, regulatory compliance requirements, and increased electrification. 

Digitalization requires the development of new digital infrastructures that can integrate technologies that support more efficient and autonomous modes of operation. TTCONTROL, a joint venture of TTTECH and HYDAC, and TTTECH partner with industry partners in European-wide research projects that focus on digital solutions.

The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) has long been a global stage for groundbreaking technologies, and this year’s event reaffirmed its relevance for the off-highway industry. CES 2026 showcased how advanced electronics and AI-driven solutions are shaping the future of mobility, automation, as well as safety and security - key priorities for off-highway applications.
