Research
In my PhD research I want to find out what meaning the way we touch or grasp an object (e.g. a mobile phone, a tangible UI, a computer mouse) carries, and how this information can improve human-computer interaction. Previously I have done some research on Capacitive Sensing for Human-Computer Interfaces. I have built a high-precision capacitive sensing toolkit ("CapToolKit") for research and prototyping. You can find more information about it on its website.Teaching (mostly German)

Projects
avbParser
Max Maurer, one of my students, and I have partially reverse-engineered the .avb file format used by Avid's video editing software. Max has also written a simple parser for .avb files. You can download it from the avbParser project page.EnterCom
In 2007 I took part in the EnterCom project sponsored by Siemens. We identified interesting developments in organizational communication.Open Topics for Student Theses
