As part of its ongoing initiative to strengthen science communication, the university’s Communications and Marketing team organized a visually and thematically compelling presence at the world’s largest trade fair for interactive entertainment.

A special highlight of the stand was the playful and interactive insight into current research. During the first three days, students from the Chair of Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence presented their work through a custom-developed VR game designed specifically for the Apple Vision Pro. Visitors had the opportunity to try out the latest in VR technology and immerse themselves in a unique interactive experience – a true crowd-puller.

On the weekend, the Chair of Mechatronics took over the booth’s research program. Equipped with multiple 3D printers and a custom AI-powered application, the team enabled visitors to create and print their own 3D figures right at the stand. This hands-on offering sparked high levels of interest – not only among gaming enthusiasts, but also among tech-savvy young people and families. There were over 500 interactions with the exhibits.
