In “Ageing Safely in the Digital Era: A New Unobtrusive Activity Monitoring Framework Leveraging on Daily Interactions with Hand-Operated Appliances” (Bousbiat, Leitner and Elmenreich 2022), we suggest a new interactive framework to unobtrusively monitor elderlies’ behavior based on their interaction with electrical appliances involved in their daily activities. Due to […]

The photo above is not from a meeting with extreme COVID protection measures but a visit to Infineon’s semiconductor fab at the beginning of our project SWILT (Swarm Intelligence Layer to Control Autonomous Agents). After three years, this research project has now come to a successful end. The SWILT project […]
Photo: Micha Sende | Foto: aau/Müller Let’s imagine a large region affected by an earthquake that needs to be combed for missing persons. Because buildings remain at risk of collapsing, this is a task that is particularly well-suited to robots. Micha Sende addressed this kind of scenario in his doctoral […]
Pasquale Grippa recently completed his doctorate in Technical Sciences. He spoke to us about his research focus – improving autonomous transport systems with the help of artificial intelligence. Pasquale has developed an algorithm for e.g. optimising drone-based delivery systems to answer questions such as: Which customers does the drone have […]
Commercial drones usually come equipped with modest on-board computing power. Consequently, their speed and agility are somewhat limited when they use their cameras like eyes to navigate in space. Samira Hayat, a researcher at the Department of Information Technology, recently joined forces with colleagues from other departments and Deutsche Telekom […]
Whenever people dance in groups, fish swim in shoals and neurons fire in unison, then there is a need for synchronicity. The world has plenty of these phenomena, many of which seem almost magical. Researchers are currently working on replicating this self-organised synchronisation for use in technical systems. Yet they […]
Our former research staff member Jennifer Simonjan received the “Digitalization Award” of the state of Carinthia for her PhD thesis entitled “Resource-efficient and Resiliant Self-Calibration in Distributed Visual Sensor Networks”. Jennifer received the award from the Govenor Peter Kaiser as part of a virtual ceremony on November 23, 2020. Press […]
