📅 When does the study start?

The study begins in the first week of December 2024.

📊 Study Goals

In this study, we aim to examine:

  1. App functionality: How well does our prototype perform in real-life use?

  2. Willingness to donate data: How willing are you to share data while preserving your privacy?

  3. Mobility behavior: What insights can we gain from students’ movement data? Who is most active, and which buildings are frequented by different departments?

“Capture the University Buildings” – by participating in our campaigns, your mobility data will be visualized on a website in real time. Track which department is the most active and which buildings are the most popular.

Best of all: you earn points and level up from Data Point Bacteria to Chief Data Scientist Owl. With your Data Coins, you can track your progress and win great prizes!
