Research
The most profound technologies are those that disappear. (Mark Weiser)
We are used to computer systems that require us to adapt to their limited capabilities. We have to learn strange interaction metaphors and arcane workflows. Computers force their users upon a logical structure that reflects the computer's way of working and not the user's way of thinking. Machines that understand the intentions of humans and perceive the environment similar to human beings are starting their way out of fiction to reality.
In my research, I aim at combing the
Ubiquitous Computing paradigm with
Augmented Reality style interaction. One of the core requirements to let computer systems naturally dive into the environment is knowledge about the location of users and objects, most times referred to as
Tracking.
I am one of the core and founding members of the
DWARF research project. In the beginning, my main interest was on vision-based tracking algorithms and their efficient implementation. Since I started to work on my Ph.D. thesis, I try to combine multiple tracking devices in a way that allows the setup of Ubiquitous Tracking environments. My Ph.D. supervisor is
Prof. Gudrun Klinker, Ph.D.?
Projects I am or have been involved in
- DWARF (1999-today)
- The Distributed Wearable Augmented Reality Framework is our main research platform.
- I am involved in all the DWARF stuff that deals with tracking.
- I actively participated in the Pathfinder?, TRAMP?, SHEEP, and ARCHIE? projects.
- Ubiquitous Tracking (2004-today)
- UMTS / Mobile Wartung? (2001-2003)
- This project is part of the Offensive Zukunft Bayern and focuses on mobile maintenance applications.
- Absolventenfest 2001
