Research Interests

Matthias Mayer is a Ph.D. student under Prog. Althoff working on modular robots with regards to:

  • Configuration optimization considering energy usage, cycle-time, mechanical wear, etc.
  • Building a benchmark for manipulator performance which allows to quantitatively compare conventional and modular robots
  • Augmenting the kinematics of modular robots, e.g., with prismatic joints or parallel chains

Theses

Master Thesis Visuo-Tactile Exploration of Unknown Environments
Bachelor Thesis An Experimental Evaluation of Transfer Learning in Deep Neural Networks for Car Detection
