Tobias Langlotz is a PhD student at the Graz University of Technology. He graduated in Media System at the Bauhaus University in Weimar. Beside his studies he worked as a student research assistant in the DFG funded research project "Holographics", STIFT funded "Phoneguide" and as a developer for rendering algorithms at the Dynardo GmbH. He did a research internship at the Integrated Media Environment Lab at Osaka University, Japan and at the HIT Lab New Zealand. He worked on his Diploma Thesis at Bauhaus University of Weimar, exploring new technologies for optical data transfer onto mobiles devices. After his studies he was employed as a developer for new projection technologies at the Vioso GmbH. Currently Tobias is involved as a researcher for Christian Doppler Laboratory for Handheld Augmented Reality. His research interests include spatial augmented reality as well as in-situ content creation for augmented reality on mobile devices.
