How can technology actually help people? Each episode explores one research project of the Immersive Reality Lab at Hamm-Lippstadt University of Applied Sciences and the people who work on it: what the project does, how it works and who it is for, along with the user research, accessibility, privacy and ethical questions that come with building systems for real people.
Season one covers ARiadne, DIDYMOS-XR, DigiOnTrack, SilentBedMonitor and MIA-PROM. A new episode is released on the first day of every month. The episodes are in English.

Episode 3: DIDYMOS-XR: Digital Twins That Keep Up with Reality
· 18 min · with Francesco Vona · About the project
A digital twin is only useful if it reflects the world as it changes. Francesco Vona explains how DIDYMOS-XR combines sensor data, artificial intelligence and extended reality to keep virtual models up to date, from city navigation to industrial inspection, and why privacy, human oversight and testing with real users matter as much as the technology.
Episode 2: ARiadne: Finding Your Way with AR, Sound and Touch
· 16 min · with Juliane Henning · About the project
ARiadne explores how augmented reality, spatial sound and haptic cues can help pedestrians navigate a city. Juliane Henning explains the project’s approach to inclusive navigation: guidance tailored to different needs, early user research, and how to guide people without competing for their attention.
