Widely available and affordable: Programme promoting mental health among adolescents moves to the next level

Early adolescence is a key stage for mental health. Young people in Eastern Europe are currently facing particular challenges, as they are confronted by poverty and inequality on the one hand, and are often adversely affected by the ongoing conflict in Ukraine on the other. In a project funded by EU HORIZON EUROPE, researchers are developing tools to promote the mental health of adolescents, specifically in Eastern Europe, in a manner that is both affordable and scalable.

As adaptable, robust and scalable as an anthill: New algorithms for more efficient factories

Production plants are highly complex systems. Identifying the optimal sequence of machines and production steps not only saves a lot of money, but also contributes to energy and resource efficiency. Using Infineon Technologies Austria AG as an example, researchers at Lakeside Labs GmbH and the University of Klagenfurt are developing new algorithms to improve the efficiency of factories.

More accuracy and robustness in determining the orientation, position, and speed of robots

Inertial navigation systems can be used to estimate the position, orientation and speed of robots. The Klagenfurt robotics researcher Alessandro Fornasier is working on more accurate and robust algorithms for inertial navigation systems and has recently published two papers together with international colleagues in which new approaches are presented.

Two kilometres of flight data: Publication of arguably the largest pool of real-world drone flight measurement data

Typically, drone flight data is generated under laboratory conditions – thus limiting its use for real-world application development. A team of researchers from Klagenfurt, working with two researchers from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, has now published the first large pool of real-world measurement data. The data was generated in and around the Klagenfurt drone hall and in the context of the AMADEE20 Mars simulation in Israel.
