I am an Augmented & Mixed Reality developer and Human-Computer Interaction researcher, currently working as a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Mixality Lab of the University of Applied Sciences Emden/Leer. My research focuses on Mixed Reality assistance & training, AI-enabled educational technology and interaction design for authoring tools in these contexts. I am passionate about Open Source, Open Science and Open Educational Resources, so I try to share as much as possible here.
- 🇪🇺 EDARA (Erasmus+, 2026–2029): As one of the Principal Investigators, I research how educators in higher education can create AR trainings with AI support.
- 🏫 NORDIB (zukunft.niedersachsen, 2025–2030): In this educational technology initiative, I work on mixed reality authoring tools for education, from authoring by demonstration, where AI models extract procedural knowledge from a single demonstration, to authoring tools for anthropomorphic AI avatars (see, for example, VisAARD and AvaKIT).
 TrainAR  An interaction concept, didactic framework and visual scripting-based authoring tool for procedural AR trainings on Android & iOS, evaluated with more than 50 authors and more than 350 learners. 📄 Interaction Concept & Didactics (MTI 2021) 📄 Authoring Tool (Information 2023) 📖 Documentation |
 SUS.tools  Free tools that make the System Usability Scale more approachable: analysis and charts of SUS scores, inferential statistics in the browser, and PDF questionnaires in 20 languages and variants. 📊 Analysis Toolkit 🧮 Statistics Calculator 📝 PDF Generator 📄 Paper (PETRA 2022) |
You can find more open-source work from my research, often created together with students and colleagues, in my repositories. For example, BrickBench is a benchmark for comparing AR assembly instructions across devices and spatial task complexity (MuC 2026), and the Effective Assembly Visualizations dataset accompanies our scoping review on which visual design characteristics make step-by-step assembly instructions effective (PETRA 2026).
