Themenschwerpunkt Interaktive ubiquitäre Systeme

The module teaches basic and advanced concepts of interactive ubiquitous systems and intelligent user interfaces. Students gain insights into human-centered development methods, the design of intelligent interactions and the technical foundations of embedded systems, the Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI) in the context of ubiquitous applications.

The module covers topics from the following areas

• Fundamentals of human-computer interaction and ubiquitous computing   
• Research techniques and prototyping   
• Context-aware, mobile and wearable interactions   
• Tangible interfaces and natural interaction (gestures, speech, physiological sensors)   
• Usable security and explainable AI
