A ZEISS Café in the heart of Tokyo? ☕ The Chiyoda-ku district is not only home to the Imperial Palace and the National Parliament, but also the headquarters of ZEISS Japan. Here, in "Carl's Café" on the 5th floor of the building named after our founding father Carl Zeiss, employees can meet and enjoy a cup of coffee together. What began in 1911 as a joint-stock company evolved in 1961 into Carl Zeiss GmbH. Since then, the site has grown into a hub of ideas and innovations in the areas of spectroscopy, medical technology as well as photography and cinematography. #ZEISS #BehindTheScences #Tokyo #Office #Location

It’s ultraviolet and about 40 times hotter than the surface of the sun. ☀️ So what are we talking about? Extreme ultraviolet light (EUV). To produce EUV light, 60,000 microscopic tin droplets per second are injected into a vacuum chamber. There, pulses from TRUMPF’s high-power laser strike the droplets and ignite a tin plasma. That all happens in the complex lithography systems of ASML. Creating EUV requires truly extreme conditions: the plasma reaches temperatures of nearly 220,000 degrees Celsius, enabling the EUV radiation to be emitted and precisely reflected by our ultra-accurate mirrors. 🌡️ #ZEISS #Technology #Innovation #EUV

Say hi to Carl and Ernst! 👋 Back in 1866, our founder and entrepreneur Carl Zeiss joined forces with physicist Ernst Abbe to place the construction of microscopes on a scientific basis. Their commitment to scientific principles created a new level of innovation. Ernst Abbe’s work laid important foundations of modern optics and gave Carl Zeiss a technological boost. This collaboration sparked a long-term innovative spirit and continues to shape ZEISS today – driving innovation forward, empowering ideas, and creating benefitting solutions. #ZEISS #CarlZeiss #ErnstAbbe #Science #History #Microscopes

Women are still underrepresented in many areas of STEM. That is why creating visibility, access and inspiration for young women matters. 👩🔬 As part of our global A Heart for Science initiative, ZEISS Taiwan gives female students a closer look at science and technology with inspiring role models, personal career stories and hands-on insights into innovation. At the ZEISS Innovation Center in Hsinchu, they connected with women from different scientific and technological fields and experienced how curiosity can grow into real impact. For us at ZEISS, making women in science more visible helps young women build confidence, discover new perspectives and see their own future in STEM. #ZEISS #AHeartForScience #WomeninScience #STEM #Hsinchu

Debunking common AI myths ! While #ArtificialIntelligence (AI) is transforming industries, several myths about it still linger. At ZEISS, we use AI to enhance human expertise, not to replace it. From medicine and production to science, AI brings measurable value – and #teamZEISS ensures humans remain in control. Making better decisions based on AI insights. But what makes ZEISS really unique? We don't just use AI! Our technology from ZEISS Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology enables semiconductor manufacturers worldwide to produce even smaller and more powerful microchips, which are fundamental to AI. Which AI myths have you encountered? Share them in the comments! 💬 #ZEISS #DebunkingMyths #Innovation #Digitalization #Microchips #Technology

Protecting nature means protecting our future. 🌳 Every year on July 28, World Nature Conservation Day raises awareness for the protection of our natural resources – from water and air to healthy soils and biodiversity. At ZEISS, we translate this awareness into concrete action. In India, ZEISS has supported the creation of a forest near industrial areas to support CO₂ sequestration over time and stabilize the soil, helping to reduce the risk of future landslides. Our contribution goes beyond funding: ZEISS employees were on site and actively helped plant the trees. This initiative is part of a broader engagement in nature conservation – including a vegetable field on the ZEISS campus and a water purification project in Denvanhalli. #ZEISS #Sustainability #NatureConservation #Biodiversity #CleanWater

Do you know that feeling when you see a place and instantly think: I have to go there? If your travel plans for this summer are already set, this one should definitely be on your list for next year: the colorful Xiaoruo Fishing Village in China. 🌈 It was exactly this diversity of colors that made the location the perfect setting for photographer Zhao Lishan. He deliberately chose the village to demonstrate how precisely ZEISS lenses can distinguish colors. His verdict: outstanding anti-flare performance in backlit conditions, clean and vibrant color rendition, exceptionally pleasing bokeh, and excellent control of distortion and chromatic aberration. #ZEISS #Cameralenses #XiaoruoFishingVillage #China

How can medical robots and AI shape the future of surgery? 🤖🩺 At the ZEISS Innovation Hub at Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT), Eleonora Tagliabue and Daniel Reichard are conducting research into medical robots for microsurgery and ophthalmology. Their aim: to improve patient outcomes while enabling precision and efficiency through robotic solutions. Thanks to the ongoing advances in #ArtificialIntelligence and #Robotics, the two researchers see a very promising future for robots in medical technology.

Today is AI Appreciation Day! And while we recognize the transformative potential of artificial intelligence, we want to celebrate the people who bring it to life. Why? AI works because we do. 🤖 AI is only as powerful as the expertise, creativity, and responsibility of the visionaries and creative minds who use it. Behind every breakthrough, every insight, and every innovation, there are individuals who turn technology into real-world impact. We asked our colleagues around the world how they use AI to improve processes, make better decisions, and create value in their everyday work. From navigating increasing complexity to developing new solutions, their stories prove: Innovation happens when human ingenuity and technological precision work hand in hand. Swipe through the visuals to see what our experts worldwide think about AI in their daily work. Visionary minds. Enhanced by AI. What about you? What does collaboration between human expertise and AI look like in your workplace?
