Taking a closer look at electricity consumption with the help of artificial intelligence

Using non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM), it is possible to analyse which devices in a household are currently consuming electricity without having to attach separate measuring instruments to all of the consumers. Emir Sinanović, a university assistant in the Smart Grids working group at the Department of Networked and Embedded Systems, hopes to combine this analysis with a large-language model that works rather like ChatGPT.

AI-controlled drone swarms to inspect wind turbines in the future

Traditionally, wind turbines have to be shut down before they can be inspected for damage. This means that these wind turbines do not generate energy during the shutdown period. Furthermore, inspection costs for wind turbines tend to be high. The DORBINE project, funded by the FFG, involves a research team from the University of Klagenfurt working with industrial partner AIR6 SYSTEMS to develop a new technology that uses artificial intelligence to control swarms of drones that inspect wind turbines while they are in operation.

Location-aware robotic vehicles: a universal approach paves the way for a wider range of applications

To explore new terrain and perform tasks autonomously, be it in the air, on the ground or under water, robotic vehicles need to know where they are and what their surroundings are like. As part of his research for his doctorate, Christian Brommer, a member of the research group ‘Control of Networked Systems’ at the University of Klagenfurt, has developed a modular and robust framework model that is designed to maximise the autonomy of robotic vehicles exploring unknown terrain.
