KIWI - Further education scenarios in mVR

Artificial intelligence for tailored training and continuing education to strengthen employability in the context of progressive digital penetration of production in the context of Industry 4.0

Funding code: 21INVI25

Duration: 01.09.2021 – 31.08.2024

Project Description

In the KIWI project, an application for smartphones is being developed for employees in production, which enables a cross-platform search for suitable training and further education offers with the help of artificial intelligence. Due to digitalisation and the increasing automation associated with it, production is undergoing rapid change, which also goes hand in hand with changing requirement and job profiles.

In order to support employees in this continuous dynamic process in the long term, it is particularly important that they not only take part in further education and training to maintain their employability from a company perspective, but that they are also sensitised to their own professional development and individual benefits. With the help of artificial intelligence, the app developed within the framework of KIWI makes it possible to determine existing further education and training offers on the basis of previously queried individual qualifications, competences, professional goals, but also learning strategies and preferences. In this project, the potential of digitalisation is not only used for the search for suitable further training offers, but also for the design of these offers. Therefore, mobile Virtual Reality (mVR) is used as a learning medium in this project. In KIWI, collaborative robotics is considered as an exemplary training scenario, as it represents a key technology in the digitalisation process and there is a correspondingly high demand for further training and education, while at the same time there are insufficient target group-specific offers.
