The research of the Chair for Communication Technology from the University of Kassel focusses on innovative technologies and applications that address challenges in mobility, healthcare, e-learning, digital work, smart cities, and the future of the internet. A particular emphasis is placed on the development and use of context-based applications, supported by artificial intelligence (AI) and enhanced mobile experiences.

Research Focus Areas

  1. Traffic Safety for Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs):
    • Investigating solutions to improve the safety of pedestrians, cyclists, and other vulnerable road users.
    • Analyzing IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) data to detect physical activities such as turning, starting, and stopping.
    • Developing AI-driven algorithms to predict movements and enhance traffic infrastructure.
  2. Interactive User Interfaces for Smart Cities:
    • Creating innovative interfaces to interact with intelligent urban objects, such as traffic lights, tourist attractions, or environmental sensors.
    • Integrating Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) for immersive and intuitive user experiences.
  3. Application of AI and Advanced Algorithms:
    • Optimizing AI methods to increase efficiency and scalability across various application areas.
    • Employing context-based systems capable of understanding and responding to human behavior and environmental factors in real time.
    • Use of AI in a hessian trade, like a butchery, for Monitoring and Improving Production Processes (Example: "Ahle Wurscht Meets AI").
  4. Mobility and Connected Systems:
    • Exploring connected communication systems to enable safe and efficient mobility.
    • Integrating sensors and IoT technologies to improve urban infrastructure.

 Technological Core Aspects

  • Artificial Intelligence: Developing and implementing advanced algorithms for a wide range of applications, including traffic safety and smart cities. This also includes participation in the hessian.AI.
  • AR/VR Technologies: Designing immersive virtual environments and augmented realities that simplify interactions with intelligent objects and data.
  • Sensor Integration: Utilizing IMU, camera, and environmental sensors for data collection and real-time processing.
