Atrai Bikes

Research Period: 01.01.2024 - 31.12.2025

The Atrai Bikes Project stands as a pioneering research initiative aimed at transforming urban planning by involving citizens, companies, and local governments in the systematic collection and analysis of bicycle infrastructure data. This two-year endeavor, funded by the Ministry of Research and Education and FAPESP in Brazil, is a collaborative effort between three organizations: re:edu and 52°North in Münster/Germany, and the Cordial Institute in São Paulo/Brazil. Set to commence in January 2024, the project seeks to spark innovative urban cycling solutions.

Research Period: 01.11.2020 - 31.08.2023

Together with the Institute for Geoinformatics at the Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster, we form the research network in the project 'senseBox:pro - The senseBox and openSenseMap as a photonics tool for innovations by professional users'. In the project, the senseBox hardware is further developed with respect to its self-sufficiency and miniaturization. We are also researching the use of cameras and a robotics extension for the senseBox:edu. We are developing a sensor wiki for the standardization of phenomena and sensors and an extension of the openSenseMap with social network functionalities and new visualization possibilities. We are also exploring a new learning environment to develop innovations faster and more sustainably with the senseBox, learning about programming and photonic technologies.
