LMU Students App: Full-Stack Mobile Development
The LMU Students App is a student-led initiative developed by students for students. This practicum offers hands-on experience in full-stack mobile app development, enabling participants to build and enhance real-world features for an application actively used by LMU students. Students will work in small teams, addressing real user feedback to improve usability, add new features, and optimize system performance. The course provides insights into modern development workflows and best practices, offering practical exposure to full-stack engineering in a production setting. Participants contribute to an open-source project and gain valuable experience with mobile frontend and scalable backend technologies. Topics and Focus Areas

Abschlussarbeiten im Bereich Human-Centered Security and Privacy
Below you will find focus areas in the research field "Human-Centered Security and Privacy" for which we offer Bachelor's and Master's theses. For a specific topic and any questions about these focus areas, please contact the relevant person. Public Security User InterfacesThe rapid development of digital technologies and the increasing threat of cybersecurity have led to a growing need for innovative security solutions in public spaces. One example of user interfaces that can improve security behavior are so-called Public Security User Interfaces. These are interfaces positioned in shared, non-personal areas that offer information or interactions on security-related topics. These interfaces play an important role in providing security information, improving situational awareness, and promoting secure behavior. The main goal of this research is to investigate the design, implementation, and impact of user interfaces that enhance security behavior, in order to facilitate the transition from cybersecurity awareness to habitual secure behavior. The theses in this area deal with topics such as:

Social EngineeringCybercrime currently causes a global economic loss amounting to several trillion euros. According to expert analyses, up to 90% of these damages are a direct or indirect result of attacks in which the human element is at the center. Attackers exploit authority, fear, curiosity, or helpfulness with the goal of manipulating their victims to obtain sensitive data. Examples include phone calls to obtain user login credentials, emails containing malware attachments to gain access to protected networks, or deep fakes used to impersonate someone's identity. Theses in this area address a variety of questions:

Security and Privacy in Mixed RealityMixed reality devices are quickly finding their way into usersâ daily lives, particularly in the form of head-mounted displays. Users can immerse themselves in virtual worlds or enrich the virtual world with physical content, supporting a wide range of applications in the areas of entertainment, work, education, and well-being. While these technologies support an ever-increasing number of features in the aforementioned areas, they also present challenges and create opportunities for security and privacy. Theses in this area essentially deal with topics in the context of two general questions: (1) How can mixed reality solve existing challenges in terms of privacy and security? (2) What challenges in terms of privacy and security arise in the context of mixed reality, and how can these be addressed? Recommended knowledge and interests

On-Body Security and Privacy InterfacesThe rapid integration of wearable sensors and head-mounted displays (HMDs) makes on-body computing increasingly relevant for security and privacy research. In this area, we focus on biometric authentication, privacy-preserving wearables, physiological sensing, and secure interaction paradigms for augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR). Possible topics include the development of novel authentication methods for wearable devices, privacy-preserving approaches to continuous physiological monitoring, secure interaction concepts in AR and VR environments, and adaptive security/privacy mechanisms that enhance user trust and system reliability. By addressing current challenges and future opportunities, we aim to develop resilient, privacy-conscious, and user-friendly on-body systems that prioritize both security and seamless interaction experiences.

Tangible Security and Privacy User InterfacesIn the age of ubiquitous computing, users' IT security and privacy are at risk almost anytime. IT security and privacy assistants help users become aware of these risks and take appropriate measures to protect their data. However, these systems are often too complex, unintuitive, and not visually appealing. In order to enable even less technologically savvy or inexperienced individuals to use IT security and privacy assistants, such mechanisms must become tangible, i.e., physically manipulable and touchable by humans.

Behavioral BiometricsThe use of biometric mechanismsâi.e., authentication based on unique features of a user's physiology or behaviorâis a convenient and fast alternative to classical token- or knowledge-based authentication. Popular examples include fingerprint, facial recognition, or typing behavior biometrics. However, these systems typically rely on machine learning algorithms, making their decisions both difficult for the user to comprehend and subject to manipulation. In this research area, we investigate novel approaches that enable users to understand and influence the results of biometric (black-box) systems, and develop new approaches with a focus on the user. The following questions are particularly interesting:
Concrete research approaches include, among others, investigating (real) user behavior (e.g., through observations, interviews, surveys) and designing, implementing, and evaluating novel security and privacy concepts. Recommended knowledge and interests

Camera-Based Wave Prediction and Calm Surface Detection Using Optical Flow and Machine Learning (+ Robotic Arm Control)
Individual Practical (6 ECTS) Start Date: Flexible Supervisor: Julian Rasch (julian.rasch ät um.ifi.lmu.de) This project is a collaboration with a Munich-based artist Philip Gröning and part of a larger initiative. Project OverviewThe objective of this project is to create a camera-based system to predict wave movements and identify the calmest surface point on a defined, square water body. This system will employ computer vision techniques, specifically optical flow, to track wave motion across video frames. Machine learning models will be utilized to predict future wave behavior, consistently detecting regions with minimal motion, representing calm areas. The calmest point will serve as the primary output and will be forwarded to a 7-axis robotic arm. The project includes real-time video processing, optical flow analysis, and machine learning for wave pattern forecasting. Project Objectives
Expected Deliverables
Required Skills & Knowledge
This project offers practical experience in computer vision and machine learning applied to a real-world problem, making it ideal for students interested in AI, robotics, environmental monitoring, and computational fluid dynamics. As part of a larger art project, an interest in the creative domain is beneficial but not mandatory. Please send a brief motivation letter, CV, and transcript of records if you are interested in this project. Details |
