I am interested in different use cases of machine learning and computer vision. My main research is in the field of Embodied AI. I am involved in the development of machine learning approaches for autonomous systems, mobile robots and cobots.

Before working at Heilbronn University, I had the opportunity to gain experience in various companies and research institutions in the fields of mechatronics, aerospace engineering and machine learning.

I supervise student theses in the subject areas of my research specialisations. You can view possible theses on the ZML website. More current topics can also be requested directly by e-mail to me.

You are welcome to submit your own ideas, but please base your proposal on the advertised topics. The decision as to whether a topic fits in with current research projects/areas of interest may result in us rejecting your proposals.
