Projects
Magellan
This 4 year EU FP7 funded IP project, which started in September 2013, aims at making authoring of location-based aims accessible for non-programmers. Within this project I deal with novel ways for authoring Augmented Reality content and with context-aware mobile user interfaces for Augmented Reality. In addition, I serve as a work package manager for the integration of a mobile client platform.

Experimedia
In this EU FP7 funded IP project I investigated the benefits and drawbacks of handheld Augmented Reality applications in tourism domains from 2012-2013.
project website
SmartReality
The project was a 2 year FFG funded R&D activity running from 2010-2012 with the goal to create Augmented Reality content which is automatically updated by using semantic content sources such as DBPedia.

AVILUSPlus
From 2008-2010 I developed and evaluated novel methods for the See-Through-Calibration and adjustment of
Augmented Reality head-mounted displays.

AVILUS
From 2008-2010 I evaluated the impact of mobile Augmented Reality based worker assistant systems in long term use. Specifically we were interested in understanding physiological effects of head-mounted displays in industrial settings.

Volunteering
I support the personal growth of people I work and live with. Below is a list of related volunteering activities.
Woman in Technology Styria
Since 2013 I am a mentor for the program „Woman in Technolgy Styria“ at Graz University of Technology, Austria. The project focuses on inspiring young woman for mathematics, computer science, natural science or engineering and and to raise the number of woman studying these fields. In the summer term I am regularly supervising interested woman in the field of mobile human computer interaction and augmented reality.
Board Member of fjp>media
From 2008-2010 I was board Member of fjp>media, the youth press organisation in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany. Our organisation supports young people with interest in journalism and new media technology through press cards, equipment lending and workshops. Furthermore, we organized yearly press trips to foreign countries like Chile and Vietnam.
