MotionMiners GmbH was founded in 2017 as a spin-off of the Fraunhofer Institute for Material Flow and Logistics (IML) in Dortmund. The company develops its proprietary Motion-Mining® technology, which combines mobile sensors, radio transmitters, and machine learning algorithms to automatically analyze manual work processes in production and logistics environments. By capturing and evaluating real process data anonymously, MotionMiners helps organizations improve productivity, ergonomics, and operational efficiency while identifying hidden optimization opportunities. Its solution provides holistic insights into process times and workplace ergonomics without requiring complex integration into existing IT systems, ensuring both ease of deployment and employee privacy.
