  abstract  = {Ziel der Arbeit war es eine spielerische Lernanwendung f{\"u}r Studierende der FH-Aachen zu entwickeln, um das individuelle Lernen zu f{\"o}rdern. Dabei lag der Fokus auf der Konzeptentwicklung eines Serious Games f{\"u}r die Fachhochschule Aachen. Abgeleitet von Motivationstheorien, Game Design Frameworks und Eigenschaften von digitalen spielerischen Konzepten wurde ein Vorgehensmodell zur Konzeptentwicklung eines Serious Games erstellt. Wichtige Punkte f{\"u}r die Anwendung waren eine intensive Austauschm{\"o}glichkeiten f{\"u}r Studierende und das Integrieren dieser in die Lehrveranstaltungen der FH-Aachen. In der abschließenden Evaluation wurde positives Feedback der Studierenden eingeholt und damit das Ziel der Arbeit erreicht. Zus{\"a}tzlich wurde f{\"u}r das erarbeitete Konzept die Wirtschaftlichkeit {\"u}berpr{\"u}ft. Daf{\"u}r wurde w{\"a}hrend der Bearbeitungszeit mit einem aufgestellten Team ein Business Plan f{\"u}r das F{\"o}rderprogramm Start-Up transfer.NRW entwickelt.},

  abstract  = {This article describes an Internet of things (IoT) sensing device with a wireless interface which is powered by the energy-harvesting method of the Wiegand effect. The Wiegand effect, in contrast to continuous sources like photovoltaic or thermal harvesters, provides small amounts of energy discontinuously in pulsed mode. To enable an energy-self-sufficient operation of the sensing device with this pulsed energy source, the output energy of the Wiegand generator is maximized. This energy is used to power up the system and to acquire and process data like position, temperature or other resistively measurable quantities as well as transmit these data via an ultra-low-power ultra-wideband (UWB) data transmitter. A proof-of-concept system was built to prove the feasibility of the approach. The energy consumption of the system during start-up was analysed, traced back in detail to the individual components, compared to the generated energy and processed to identify further optimization options. Based on the proof of concept, an application prototype was developed.},

  abstract  = {Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) is an active research field in the robotics community. Despite recent advances for many open research questions, these kind of systems are not widely used in real rescue missions. One reason is that such systems are complex and not (yet) very reliable; another is that one has to be an robotic expert to run such a system. Moreover, available rescue robots are very expensive and the benefits of using them are still limited. In this paper, we present the Scarab robot, an alternative design for a USAR robot. The robot is light weight, humanpackable and its primary purpose is that of extending the rescuer's capability to sense the disaster site. The idea is that a responder throws the robot to a certain spot. The robot survives the impact with the ground and relays sensor data such as camera images or thermal images to the responder's hand-held control unit from which the robot can be remotely controlled.},

These broad fields are essential for robotic systems, yet it makes it difficult for the researchers to specialize and be experts in all these fields. Collaboration between researchers allow for the integration of experience and specialization, to allow optimized systems. Collaboration between the European countries and South Africa is critical, as each country has different resources available, which the other countries might not have. Applications with the need for approval of any restrictions, can also be obtained easier in some countries compared to others, thus preventing the delays of research. Some problems that have been experienced are discussed, with the Robotics Center of South Africa as a possible solution.},

The RoboCup Logistics League (RCLL) is one specific industry-inspired scenario focusing on production logistics within a Smart Factory. In this paper, we describe how the RCLL allows to assess the performance of a group of robots within the scenario as a whole, focusing specifically on the coordination and cooperation strategies and the methods and components to achieve them. We report on recent efforts to analyze performance of teams in 2014 to understand the implications of the current grading scheme, and derived criteria and metrics for performance assessment based on Key Performance Indicators (KPI) adapted from classic factory evaluation. We reflect on differences and compatibility towards RoCKIn, a recent major benchmarking European project.},

ROS is a robot middleware that is used my many research institutions world-wide. Therefore, many state-of-the-art algorithms of mobile robotics are available in ROS and can be deployed very easily. As a basic robot platform we deploy a 1/10 RC cart that is wquipped with an Arduino micro-controller to control the servo motors, and an embedded PC that runs ROS. In two weeks, participants get to learn the basics of mobile robotics hands-on. We describe our teaching concepts and our curriculum and report on the learning success of our students.},
