Below you can find a list of all current and previous projects of research, their status, mission, and funding:
Name: CEED: Computational Empowerment for Emerging Technologies in Education
Description: CEED is a 4-year research project anchored at Center for Computational Thinking and Design at AU for exploring and building new practices of computational empowerment for emerging technologies in Danish secondary education. CEED addresses the core question: How do we empower coming generations to understand the complexity and impact of digital technology and become co-creators of our future digitalised society? While new technologies are rapidly transforming our everyday lives, investment in educating children about their impact and potentials has just begun, prioritizing a focus on coding skills and computational thinking over quality of life, agency and democracy.
Duration: 2020-2024
Granted by: Villum Foundation
Name: FoodReFurb - Smart Sensor and Digital foodwaste processing solution
Partners: FoodRefurb ApS, Packotech, Aarhus University
Description: Today, disposal of food waste is done in one of three ways; Incineration, Biogas or biofuel or Feed for animals. The FoodRefurb project solution is different in the way that it treats the resource as a high value resource. In this project, real time sensor technology is integrated in an automated process that separates bread waste such as day-old bread and packed bread in homogeneous categories. By combining data from sensors with known product recipes we can optimize the composition of a finished bread waste product, which after drying and grinding will become ingredients in new sustainable food products. Using a novel depacking solution based on a visual identification and sensor-based mold detection technology used in combination with robot technology our solution is able to add value to this resource. As such, the FoodRefurb solution offers a fully automatic, low cost, high quality and high value solution specifically designed to increase the usability and value of food waste products. AU mission will be the design of algorithms for food tracking, data analysis and calculation of the end value products.
Duration: February 2022 - February 2023
