Robots set to learn how to provide better assistance during surgery

Minimally invasive surgery has many advantages for patients and surgical teams, such as shorter recovery times, lower post-operative complication rates, higher patient acceptance rates and increased cost efficiency. One key area here is interventional radiology, where external imaging equipment is used to guide the surgical instruments through the body. Robots can support in this task. However, those who believe that robots “operate” independently are (as yet) mistaken: The robot systems available today are pure tele-operators or mere assistants for holding and targeting tools; that’s all they can do. Now, a research project led by the University of Klagenfurt wants to explore additional advantages of “operating robots” and increase their autonomy when it comes to supporting surgeons. Read more →

Management of contact persons (Contact Tracing)

Starting on Monday, 21 September 2020, the library will implement a system for the management of contact persons (Contact Tracing), which will also cover the opening hours of the circulation desk.

As is the case with the 24-hour library, the electronically controlled turnstiles will remain closed at all times, which means that university members will need to carry their AAU card with them in order to be able to access the library.

PLEASE NOTE: All members of the university who have not re-registered since 3 August MUST register for the 24h library in order to access the library. This also applies to access during the serviced opening hours!

 

You can do this online by selecting “My settings” (Meine Einstellungen) in the Campus System and choosing “24-hour library” (24-Stunden-Bibliothek) from the menu.
(https://campus.aau.at)

Please register at least one day ahead of the first planned use of this service.
User accounts are activated overnight.

Wheelchair users are kindly requested to contact our staff at the circulation desk after registration.

 

Procedural rules as well as distance and hygiene measures apply:

  • The requirement to wear masks throughout the library is based on the relevant provisions applicable to the university as a whole.
  • Before entering the library, please use the disinfectant dispenser (outside the entrance).
  • Including the PC work stations, there are max. 100 reading and work stations available. The reading room for periodicals (approx. 25 places) is reserved as a “learning zone” for the participation in webinars.
  • During your stay, we recommend that you wash your hands regularly and thoroughly.
  • A safety distance of at least 2 metres must be complied with throughout the University Library.
  • The minimum distance, as determined by seating arrangements in the study areas, must not be changed. Work stations are marked with stickers.
  • Tables and keyboards must be disinfected before use by every user (disinfectant solution and tissues are available in all reading rooms and in the entrance area).
  • Only one person per copy room.
  • Only one person at a time is allowed to use the lift.
