In August 2014 I finished my PhD and am now with TGW Systems Integration in Wels, Austria!

I am a PhD student at the Department of Computer Science at the University of Freiburg. I am working at the research lab for Autonomous Intelligent Systems headed by Wolfram Burgard.
I am a member of the Graduate Program Embedded Microsystems.
The focus of my research lies on landmark based localization methods for mobile robots.
My Erdös number is at most 4.
