  abstract  = {The Robot Operating System (ROS) is the current de-facto standard in robot middlewares. The steadily increasing size of the user base results in a greater demand for training as well. User groups range from students in academia to industry professionals with a broad spectrum of developers in between. To deliver high quality training and education to any of these audiences, educators need to tailor individual curricula for any such training. In this paper, we present an approach to ease compiling curricula for ROS trainings based on a taxonomy of the teaching contents. The instructor can select a set of dedicated learning units and the system will automatically compile the teaching material based on the dependencies of the units selected and a set of parameters for a particular training. We walk through an example training to illustrate our work.},

  abstract  = {This paper introduces a new maritime search and rescue system based on S-band illumination harmonic radar (HR). Passive and active tags have been developed and tested while attached to life jackets and a small boat. In this demonstration test carried out on the Baltic Sea, the system was able to detect and range the active tags up to a distance of 5800 m using an illumination signal transmit-power of 100 W. Special attention is given to the development, performance, and conceptual differences between passive and active tags used in the system. Guidelines for achieving a high HR dynamic range, including a system components description, are given and a comparison with other HR systems is performed. System integration with a commercial maritime X-band navigation radar is shown to demonstrate a solution for rapid search and rescue response and quick localization.},

Passive and active tags have been developed and tested attached to life jackets and a rescue boat. This system was able to detect and range the active tags up to a range of 5800 m in tests on the Baltic Sea with an antenna input power of only 100 W. All electronic GHz components of the system, excluding the S-band power amplifier, were custom developed for this purpose. Special attention is given to the performance and conceptual differences between passive and active tags used in the system and integration with a maritime X-band navigation radar is demonstrated.},

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.},
