Computer Vision for Intelligent Mobility Systems

The Computer Vision for Intelligent Mobility Systems research group is concerned with deep learning methods for analysing and generating image data. Data from different imaging sensors in two- and three-dimensional space are processed. The aim of the research group is to develop super-human perception for automated vehicles, aircraft, rail vehicles and other means of transport, and to analyse image data from infrastructure sensors for traffic monitoring.
In addition to the efforts in the mobility sector, the research group is committed to the use of computer vision for improved environmental protection and more sustainability.
