How can a drone estimate its state and position as accurately as possible, even when flying in an area without a good GPS signal and with only few distinctive visual features such as a desert? As part of his Master’s thesis, Lorenzo Miarelli is working on mathematical methods intended to support drones and robots in autonomous navigation.
When will inflation fall and when will economic growth accelerate? Luis Gruber, an early career researcher in Gregor Kastner’s research team at the Department of Statistics, is developing new statistical methods to help predict socially relevant topics such as economic development. It is important to note that statistics are not a crystal ball. We will not be able to predict the future with complete accuracy, which makes it all the more important to use new methods in order to demonstrate the degree of uncertainty associated with predictions.
After a period of five months, the University of Klagenfurt’s Outdoor Drone Space Austria (ODSA) at the Lakeside Science & Technology Park is close to completion. Alongside the drone hall, this will provide the drone researchers at Dronehub Klagenfurt with outdoor research infrastructure for developing and testing innovative drone technologies.
Supermarket chains have been offering home delivery for several years now – and have encountered numerous challenges in the process. Last-mile delivery, i.e. getting items to the customer, can be costly and has a significant environmental impact, especially in the food sector, where goods often require expedited delivery. A research team from the University of Palermo and the University of Klagenfurt has recently examined the role of consumer behaviour in this process and explored incentives that could encourage customers to choose more climate-friendly delivery options.
