The scientific staff of the AMBIENTE research division has been developing human-centered technologies for work- and interaction environments for many years. This includes our previous work on interactive communications- and collaboration landscapes, so called Roomware© components and smart artefacts, which are both integrated in the environment and also realized as mobile devices.

We bring together competencies from various areas of expertise, for instance computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW), interaction design, human computer interaction (HCI), ubiquitous computing (UbiComp), and sensor technologies.

Members of our interdisciplinary team are computer scientists, electronic engineers, physicists, and psychologists. In cooperation with product and graphics designers as well as architects we work on the latest research topics, but we also consult and provide solutions for more practical issues.
