Development of Synergetic Measurement and Analysis Methods in Human-Tool Interaction

Development of Synergetic Measurement and Analysis Methods in Human-Tool Interaction

Our vision

At the Chair of Power Tools and Machine Elements, we focus our research on the field of data-driven product development. The aim of our research and development activities is to support the design and testing of mechatronic systems with application-oriented methods and solutions. We work closely with partners from industry to find solutions to specific problems and drive innovation. We use both simulative and experimental approaches for implementation. In doing so, we make use of IPEK's first-class equipment with numerous test benches, modern measurement technology and simulation tools.
 

Your mission with us

Scientific excellence
Contribute to the development and optimization of measurement and analysis methods for application recognition in the use of hand tools. You will work on the implementation and evaluation of synergetic approaches that combine both product-integrated sensor technology and camera-based measurement technology. Your tasks will include the setup and adaptation of integrated measurement technology, experimental data collection and evaluation, and the development and validation of models for activity recognition. You will apply innovative methods to improve the motion and activity recognition of hand tools and compare the performance of different measurement technologies. This will include investigating the real-time capability of these systems.
You will present your research findings at national and international conferences and network with leading experts to share your findings with a global research community. The scientific goal in our team is a doctorate.

Interface between research and industry
