Markus Berger is a research associate at the Professorship for AI for Sustainable Construction. Prior to this, he studied Computer Science and Visual Computing at the University of Rostock and in 2023 completed his PhD in Geoinformatics on multisensory representations of spatiotemporal data in immersive environments (AR and VR). He is now researching topics such as haptic user interfaces in construction, ambient representation of building data and applications of AI in design and planning.

In teaching, he is involved in the basic computer science education of environmental and civil engineers. In specialized elective courses, he also teaches students the basics of 3D visualization and real-time applications, as well as advanced aspects of augmented and virtual reality in civil engineering.

Nils Krause is a research assistant and doctoral student in the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Rostock. His focus is on the use of laser scanning, point clouds and LiDAR technologies in combination with artificial intelligence (AI) to develop innovative solutions in civil engineering. He works intensively on the application of LiDAR data for Building Information Modeling (BIM) as well as on the precise capture and analysis of building geometries. He is passionate about increasing efficiency in planning and construction processes through the use of cutting-edge technologies. I always have an open ear for any questions you may have, also in other areas. Feel free to contact me by e-mail.
