Research

Current research activities of Prof. Dr. Nicolas Meseth. Includes projects, publications, talks, and thesis supervision.

Projects

My current research project is called InVerBio. Within this project, my team and I explore how an AI-based virtual shopping assistant can help in the context of contactless smart stores. Learn more through the links below.
