Fawn rescue Drones as a tool for rescuing young wildlife Young wild animals often lie in the middle of meadows in the high grass between the beginning and middle of May and are therefore easily overlooked and killed during mowing. Farmers call in hunters to comb the meadows on foot and look for young game. However, this can be done much faster with the help of drones with thermal imaging cameras that fly over the meadows and can thus locate fawns. Dietrich Schneider from the Bavarian Drone Academy, who offers his services as a drone pilot and [...]

Working together more closely The Bayerische BauAkademie and the Campus Feuchtwangen of Ansbach University of Applied Sciences approach each other The Managing Director of the Bayerische BauAkademie Gabriela Gottwald, Campus Director Prof. Dr.-Ing.

Electromobility at Campus Feuchtwangen Reasonable enhancement of the portfolio for all students A good one and a half years ago, a team led by professors Stefan Weiherer and Michael Walter demonstrated how a bioethanol-powered auxiliary heater for the passenger compartment can relieve the load on the vehicle's own battery and thus increase the range of electric vehicles. To this end, four students drove the university's own research e-vehicle, a specially converted Renault ZOE, to the partner university in Seinajöki, Finland, 2500 km away, and collected plenty of data and experiences along the way. At the end of [...]
