Martin Kandlhofer of the Institute of Software Technology conducts research on how children and young people can be inspired about robotics and artificial intelligence. At the same time, he himself is a kind of cyborg. Born in eastern Styria, Martin Kandlhofer has been interested in software and programming since his school days and nearly studied German studies or history. To write a book is still a dream for the sports-loving, science fiction fan, but in the end he studied software development at TU Graz "the logical and also the right decision". In his doctoral thesis at the Institute of Software Technology, Martin Kandlhofer conducts research as a specialist in educational robotics and how the young generation from nursery school upwards to school and university can be inspired about robotics and artificial intelligence.
