Projects

From shaping seamless user experiences to bringing complex systems to life, I thrive on turning challenges into intuitive, meaningful solutions across the mobility, industry, and enterprise domains. While much of my client work is under wraps due to confidentiality, I am excited to share a selection of public, private, and student projects that reflect my passion for thoughtful, human-centered design.

  • Explaining Automation Behavior of Automated Vehicles in the City: Project STADT:up
    2023–2025, Ergosign, Research Project

    Explaining Automation Behavior of Automated Vehicles in the City: Project STADT:up

    STADT:up aims to design consistent, scalable solutions for future urban mobility in which vehicles can navigate safely through complex, inner-city traffic situations. It is a collaborative project with 22 partners from industry…

  • Context-Based Interface Prototyping for Autonomous Vehicles: PhD Project
    2019–2023, HMI, Interaction Design, PhD Project, Research

    Context-Based Interface Prototyping for Autonomous Vehicles: PhD Project

    Humanity’s dream of autonomous mobility dates back almost a century. However, its fulfillment always continued to stay about 20 years away. With recent developments, it seems a tipping point in automotive history…

  • Interacting with Autonomous Mobility-On-Demand Systems: Project APEROL
    2018–2021, Ergosign, Research Project

    Interacting with Autonomous Mobility-On-Demand Systems: Project APEROL

    Autonomous mobility-on-demand (AMoD) systems could provide around-the-clock, cost-effective, and flexible mobility services without fixed schedules, stops, or drivers and be controlled entirely via digital user interfaces. In the research project APEROL, funded by…

  • Evaluating Multimodal Human-Machine Interfaces for Highly Automated Truck Driving
    2018, HMI, Interaction Design, Master’s Thesis, Research

    Evaluating Multimodal Human-Machine Interfaces for Highly Automated Truck Driving

    Highly automated driving (SAE Level 3) enables vehicles to take over longitudinal and lateral control without requiring constant driver supervision (Gasser et al., 2012). This technology, already approved for public roads in…

  • Development & Evaluation of a Proactive Driver Warning System to Protect Vulnerable Road Users
    2018, Daimler, HMI, Interaction Design, Research

    Development & Evaluation of a Proactive Driver Warning System to Protect Vulnerable Road Users

    Vulnerable road users (VRUs) make up a large proportion of annual road deaths. In 2015, 22% of road fatalities worldwide were pedestrians and 4% were cyclists (World Health Organization, 2015). As the…

  • Augmented Reality in Industry 4.0: Potential for Optimizing Troubleshooting Processes
    2016, Bachelor’s Thesis, HMI, Industry 4.0, Interaction Design

    Augmented Reality in Industry 4.0: Potential for Optimizing Troubleshooting Processes

    The increasing connection of components of industrial machine production processes to form so-called cyber-physical systems is vehemently changing the working world of humans. The monitoring and control of automated machines is increasingly…

  • Supporting Endangered Animals through Information Design: Project Devil’s Face
    2016, Information Design, Interaction Design

    Supporting Endangered Animals through Information Design: Project Devil’s Face

    Devil’s Face is a design concept for a speculative iPad Application by Zoos Victoria supporting the „Save the Tasmanian Devil Program“ of the Australian and Tasmanian governments. Using infographics, the app illustrates…

  • Raising Awareness of Climate Change with Humor and Design: Save the Ales!
    2015, Animation Design, Information Design

    Raising Awareness of Climate Change with Humor and Design: Save the Ales!

    Save the Ales is a global Earth Hour initiative by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). This animated project uses infographics and humor to raise awareness about climate change from an unexpected…

  • Design & Development of a Microscopy E-Learning Platform: Project mikropi
    2015, E-Learning, Interaction Design, Web Development

    Design & Development of a Microscopy E-Learning Platform: Project mikropi

    Learning to use a microscope is part of the basic training for medical students. Providing adequate courses and materials is challenging for lecturers since 1) microscopy courses often require expensive and specialized…
