The EXPO is back! A true institution at the University of Hamburg's Department of Computer Science, this dynamic poster and demo session once again brought students together to present the impressive results of their projects, lab work, and final theses.

This year’s EXPO 2025 showcased 12 innovative projects from across the department. Attendees were treated to posters, live demos, and interactive exhibits exploring a wide range of topics—from AI-driven sign language recognition and autonomous drone mapping to immersive VR experiences addressing societal challenges. It was a fantastic demonstration of how robotics, human-computer interaction, and machine learning are shaping real-world solutions.
