Researchers from all disciplines are confronted with increasingly large amounts of data. The newly founded Rhine-Ruhr Center for data literacy (DKZ.2R) has set itself the goal of supporting and promoting researchers from a variety of research disciplines with regard to increasingly complex data analysis, data management and high-performance computing.

The Garrulus project aims to develop a fast, reliable and cost-effective method for the reforestation and monitoring of damaged forest areas in Germany. The automated direct seeding of trees offers a good opportunity to grow site-adapted and resilient trees. To this end, the sowing should be targeted at locations with the best possible conditions. Technologies such as drones and artificial intelligence should make the efficiency and effectiveness of direct seeding viable through precise seed planning, targeted drone seeding and subsequent regeneration monitoring.

The EcoTwin research project is researching how urban green spaces can reduce climate change. The aim is to support environmental and green space authorities in sustainable land management through a digital twin and to provide data-based and location-adapted measures. Modern sensors and AI technologies help to bundle environmental information and process it in a meaningful way. Citizens are actively involved and can participate in their private green spaces. EcoTwin strives for a sustainable and climate-resilient use of urban green spaces.

CBRN incidents and resulting casualties are a permanent threat across the continent. In past incidents, First Responders were often required to provide help without having conducted sufficient training on how to operate in CBRN incidents. Moreover, First Responders seldom are aware of the risks that CBBN material poses to their health. The management of a CBRN scene including the recovery of persons concerned requires standard operating procedures, advanced skills and suitable equipment. A step-by-step approach needs to include (1) detection of the CBRN threat, (2) triage of casualties and (3) on-site decontamination before the provision of medical aid. The aim is to establish a unified framework for evaluating capabilities, procedures and co-developed solutions to be used in CBRN-E preparedness and response.

The Center for Assistive Technologies Rhein-Ruhr (De: ZAT Rhein-Ruhr) project is a comprehensive initiative focused on creating a sustainable ecosystem for assistive technologies. It encompasses infrastructure development, ethical considerations, public engagement, and financial sustainability, all with the aim of improving assistive technology research and development, teaching and transfer, thereby ensuring its widespread impact. ZAT's focus is on pro-adaptive solutions (assistive solutions that "proactively tackle adaptability") in the work, home, healthcare, mobility and education domains. The project is conducted in cooperation with Hochschule Rhein-Waal, Hochschule Niederrhein and Universität Duisburg-Essen. The North Rhine-Westphalian Ministry of Culture and Science (MKW) is funding the project with 2.7 million euros for a period of three years.

OpenSKIZZE: Open source development tools for urban development: climate impact adaptation with cooperative AI-supported decision-making processes. As an open source AI assistant, OpenSKIZZE is intended to transfer the findings from climate models into concrete construction projects. This system is intended to involve all stakeholders in the process at an early stage and inform them about the effects of their decisions on the local urban climate.

The aim of the project is to develop a new system approach for optical 3D imaging cameras that combines different measurement approaches in an extended measurement architecture and thus overcomes the current limitations of today's 3D cameras. The technology to be developed should enable robust and safe operation, especially in functional safety applications. To this end, the measuring range and robustness in the detection of fast movements are to be improved compared to the state of the art. The planned basic technology is the ToF camera method (time-of-flight method). FKZ: 13FH554KX1

In the MigrAVE project, the objective is to develop supporting technologies for children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). ASD is a disorder that leads to behavioural and social challenges for those affected, for instance difficulty recognising emotions, general inability to act appropriately in everyday social situations, or repetitive behaviours. Early treatment of ASD could mitigate the effects of the disorder and improve the quality of life of affected people.

Our research group studies rare genetic defects in metabolic pathways. We are aiming at a better understanding of pathomechanisms underlying such inborn errors of metabolism. Many metabolic diseases result in early death or severe handicaps if they are not treated in an adequate manner. Early diagnosis is a prerequisite for therapeutic approaches, which may enable normal development in some of those diseases.
