On November 10, a group of students from the Department of Computer Science participated in the SofDCar Hackathon II and was awarded one of the three equal first places. The group was supervised by our group member Robin Pesl M.Sc., and Dr. Christopher Gerking from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, KIT. Together, the students worked on the topic of ride pooling, an approach in which passengers with identical or similar routes are transported in the same vehicle. This is intended to reduce costs and journeys.
The application visualizes data from the perspectives of various stakeholders.
