Vom Locktopf zur KI-Beobachtungsstation – Ein Projekt zur Unterstützung bei der Bekämpfung der Asiatischen Hornisse
Die Asiatische Hornisse breitet sich in Europa weiter aus und stellt besonders Imker, Naturschutz und Kommunen vor neue Herausforderungen. Doch wie erkennt man ihre Aktivität frühzeitig, wenn niemand dauerhaft vor Ort sein kann? In diesem Vortrag zeige ich, wie aus einem einfachen Locktopf mit Kamera-Modul, Mikrocontroller, 3D-Druckteilen und lokaler KI-Erkennung eine kleine DIY-Monitoringstation entsteht. Der konkrete Anwendungsfall ist die Asiatische Hornisse, der Maker-Kern dahinter ist aber universell: günstige Hardware, Edge-AI, Offline-Speicherung und Citizen Science für praktisches Umweltmonitoring.

Colour Analysis by Colour Identity Studio
Personal Colour Analysis is the process of discovering the colours that harmonise most naturally with your skin, eyes and hair. During an in-person session, professionally selected colour drapes are compared near the face. As one colour replaces another, subtle changes become easier to see - in skin clarity, shadows, redness or sallowness, facial definition, eye brightness and the overall sense of balance. Rather than relying on assumptions based on hair or eye colour, the result emerges through direct comparison. The aim is to identify the Undertone, Value and Intensity of colour that best support your natural colouring.
Smash gender stereotypes!
Gender stereotypes are stubborn! To challenge them, we first need to become aware of them. And what better way to do that than through a game 🎲 – especially one that makes learning fun? 🤩 The Gender Game (GG) combines a giant physical board game 🎲 with interactive digital features 📱 to make the experience even more engaging! Thanks to RFID technology, players can trigger questions simply by scanning cards 💳, share their views 💬 and collect points ⭐ when their answers match scientific research findings. The points are displayed directly on the playing figures! 🚀 Ready to spark lively discussions, challenge assumptions and rethink gender stereotypes?
OPEN FOOTWEAR - Shoes Made by YOU!
Open Footwear is open-source footwear you make yourself. Download the files, cut them at a FabLab, and assemble a pair that fits your feet, your style, and your life. Because the shoes are made locally — not shipped halfway around the world — repair is part of the design, not an afterthought. Customize them. Fix them. Wear them longer. Let’s make it sustainable.

Explorer
Meet Explorer—a little wooden robot who is always ready for an adventure! With a battery, some wires, a switch, and a bright LED, Explorer gives you a fun way to see how electricity actually works. Flip the switch, and watch his light come on! There is no magic involved—just a bit of engineering, some simple electronics, and plenty of fun. Build Explorer, connect everything, switch it on, and see what happens. Who knows? You might even discover that you enjoy being an engineer!
