Recommendations

Patrick HerbersChair for Computing in Engineering, Ruhr University Bochum
Researching AR, Robotics, and AI applications for the construction industry (Mar 2024)

Thorger hat immer exzellente Arbeit als HiWi am Lehrstuhl für Informatik im Bauwesen an der RUB geleistet. Unter anderem hat er uns in der Lehre zum Fach Web Engineering und Projekten unterstützt. Aus eigener Initiative hat er neue Projekt- und Forschungsideen eingebracht, und damit ein Paper auf dem Forum Bauinformatik 2023 veröffentlicht (siehe “An overview of outdoor and indoor navigation in regard to the use of existing standards”, T. Jansen und L. Burkardsmaier, FBI 2023). Unsere Diskussionen zu Informatikthemen waren anregend, und er war im Büro immer gern gesehen. Während seiner Zeit an unserem Lehrstuhl war er dabei stets lehrbereit und zielorientiert. Als Mitarbeiter kann ich Thorger nur empfehlen.
