About me

I have studied Media Informatics at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) from 2000 to 2006 and started as a research assistant and PhD student at this department in July 2006.

During my studies, I have been working as a visiting researcher at the Mixed Reality Laboratory (MRL - University of Nottingham) (November 2004 - March 2005) and in the Embedded Interactive Systems Group at Lancaster University (July/August 2008).

At the moment, I am continuing my PhD-research at DOCOMO Euro-Labs but also remain attached to the Media Informatics research unit.

Research Interests

• Pervasive/Ubiquitous and Mobile Computing
• Physical Mobile Interaction
• Mobile Interaction with NFC (Near Field Communication)
• Context-Aware Computing
• Pervasive/Mobile Gaming
• Persuasive Technology
• Social Networks
