QUINCY Field Lab: Innovative Technologies in Practical Use
From August 25 to 27, 2026, MEISER Solar in Losheim am See hosted the Field Lab of the QUINCY research project. The focus was on innovati ve technologies designed to support employees working on large-scale construction sites.
Over two days of practical testing, sensor-equipped workwear and camera technologies were tested under real-world conditions. The aim was to capture movement patterns and physical strain during the installation of substructures for solar systems and to use the findings to help create safer and more ergonomic working conditions.
On the third day, the project partners came together to evaluate and discuss the results of the practical tests. In addition to MEISER Solar, the Institute for Ecological Economy Research (IÖW), the University of Kassel and the August-Wilhelm Scheer Institute (AWSi) participated in the Field Lab. The practical testing was supported by the installation companies Greencells and Ecotec.
The QUINCY project demonstrates how digitalization and innovative technologies can contribute to sustainably improving working conditions on large-scale construction sites.
