About this Project

Multimedia and gaming are two areas as closely linked in science as in practical application. The IMS has always endeavored to provide multimedia in a playful way, e.g. in form of smartphone apps. The spectrum of projects goes from simple mobile games over complex online media applications to strategic gaming, an area closely connected to artificial intelligence and machine learning.
