One year ago: Spot on MozART at the Ars Electronica Festival
The Ars Electronica Festival for ‘Art, Technology and Society’ is starting again in Linz these days. Exactly one year ago, the ‘Spot on MozART’ project by Studio PCA and the Mozarteum University was represented there.
Amin Anjomshoaa takes up his work as new Studio Director
The RSA FG studios Data Science (DSc) and Smart Digital Industries and Services (SDIS) have a new Studio Director: Amin Anjomshoaa, senior researcher at the WU Vienna, takes over from Stefan Gindl.
INNOVATOUR: New paths for climate-friendly mobility in tourism
The INNOVATOUR research project (sustainable management of needs-based tourism mobility requirements through data innovations) addresses tourism mobility as an important field of action in transport planning. The aim of the project is to develop new mobility indicators by tapping into and analyzing previously unused data sources in order to better understand mobility behavior in tourism and reduce car use. This involves analyzing a wide range of previously unused or hardly used tourism data, such as overnight stays, booking data and admission tickets. In Salzburg and Styria, practical use cases for needs-based mobility services in the environmental network are being developed. The promotion of safe, affordable and sustainable mobility offers in the tourism context as well as more inclusive access should be at the end of the project.
Studio Data Science Phd-candidate joins Austria’s first symposium on AI and robotics
Researcher Alaa El-Ebshihy was part of the first symposium on AI and robotics in Austria "AIRoV" in Innsbruck. The presentation of one of her articles was also on the programme: it deals with the challenges of so-called "scientific knowledge graphs" and possible solutions.
New aquaponics project gives AI not only a brain, but also eyes
The so-called ‘synaesthetic AI’ in a new SDIS project brings together sensor inputs and acquired knowledge in aquaponics and thus facilitates the construction and operation of such systems. However, the approach of combining live data and existing data sets for artificial intelligence can be used in all cyber-physical systems.
Using spaces instead of wasting space with the project Sharing Hubs
Shared forms of mobility, sustainable (re)allocation of space and attractive, inclusive, needs-based access to mobility in residential and business areas are the aim of the iSPACE Sharing Hubs project. Vehicles should be shared in these hubs, while the existing parking spaces are also to be used in more than one way. The spatial decoupling of living/working and parking promotes shared mobility. In addition, these sharing hubs can be equipped with low-cost e-charging infrastructure and supplemented with services such as parcel boxes.

ENERGIEatlas at Mission Innovation Austria Week
The role of the regions in the national energy transition was the topic of this year's Mission Innovation Austria Week 2024 in Stegersbach in Burgenland. The session on ‘Spatial energy planning as the key to measure-based municipal Co2 reduction pathways’ presented the results of the GEL S/E/P I and II project bundle.
Anti-Aging for AI: the challenge of building time-resistant models for CLEF 2024
Data changes all the time, so how can information retrieval systems like search engines, trained on older data sets, keep up without losing effectiveness. This is what the researchers in the Kodicare project looked into at the CLEF 2024 LongEval shared task.
RSA FG experts presented innovative digital tools in Carinthia
Climate-fit is the buzzword that municipalities are using to create new solutions for the design of neighborhoods and settlements and to counter the climate crisis. In Carinthia, part of the iSPACE team provided insights and examples of how this can work.
Approaching Agriculture 4.0: Smart Farming in Lower Austria
What does the future of agriculture look like? Can digital innovations help to ensure security of supply and sustainability? Together with two Lower Austrian partners, the Research Studios Austria FG is developing initiatives in the field of Smart Farming - for a future-proof Agriculture 4.0.
Our research on TV
What do AI and crop farming have in common? A lot, as ORF Niederösterreich Austria reported just last week. And it's getting more and more relevant. We are particularly pleased to be part of this exciting series on the omnipresent topic of AI. Our studio manager Stefan Gindl was interviewed together with Stefan Wögerbauer from Smart Greenery on the topic of vertical farming and AI as well as our AgrarSense research project. The exciting report is available on ORF TVThek as well as [...]
