About me:
Since October 2014, I am professor (W3 equivalent) for humanoid robots and vice rector for digitalization at the University of Bonn. I am additionally with the Lamarr Institute for Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence. I have been PI in several national and European projects and I am also a member of the executive board of the Cluster of Excellence PhenoRob - Robotics and Phenotyping for Sustainable Crop Production.
In the course of my research career, I have contributed several innovative solutions for robotic systems co-existing and interacting with humans. Among them are navigation and active perception techniques for legged and wheeled robots as well as for detecting humans and analyzing their motions and preferences to generate foresighted, personalized robot behavior. See the research and publication pages of my group for further details.
