On Schüler-Infotag more than 400 students from different schools took a look at the research at FAU. Martin and Malte presented projects of the MaD Lab in the fields of movement analysis and virtual reality. In hands-on demos the students learned that wearable sensing is already a part of our everyd...

In gemeinsamer Zusammenarbeit zwischen der FAU und der UKER konnte unter der Federführung der Molekularen Neurologie ein EIT-Health Projekt eingeworben werden, welches die Sensor-basierte Gang- und Sturzanalyse bei Parkinson-Patienten entwickelt. Die Kombination von Bewegungssensoren im Schuh zur ho...

We are pleased to announce that our paper “Promoting Relaxation Using Virtual Reality, Olfactory Interfaces and Wearable EEG” by Judith Amores (MIT Media Lab) and Robert Richer (MaD Lab) won the Best Student Paper Award at the 2018 IEEE International Conference on Body Sensor Networks (BSN) in Las V...

Bjoern Eskofier and Jochen Klucken hosted a very successful „5th International Symposium on Automated Sensor Based Mobility Analysis for Disease Prevention and Treatment“ at the BSN/BHI conference in Las Vegas.

First studying Biophysics and Biomedical Engineering, Arne realized that building software and developing algorithms is a lot more fun. After a master thesis on monitoring human joint angles with wearables sensors, he now joined the team as a doctoral researcher on the MoveIT project, which aims ...
