Your role in the team

  • Modern sensor applications require intuitive and customizable user interfaces to visualize, configure, and interact with sensor data.
  • Recent advances in generative AI and large language models (LLMs) make it possible to generate user interfaces automatically from natural language descriptions, reducing development effort and accelerating prototyping.
  • In this thesis, you will explore the design and implementation of an AI-powered development agent that generates production-ready user interfaces for sensor applications based on natural language prompts.
  • Design and implement an AI-assisted UI generation workflow, focusing on Visual Studio Code and GitHub Copilot.
  • Develop frontend templates and mechanisms for generating UI components.
  • Integrate LLM-based AI services and Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools.
  • Build proof-of-concept interfaces for sensor applications.
  • Evaluate the generated user interfaces in terms of usability, maintainability, and development efficiency.
  • Document your findings and provide recommendations for future AI-driven development workflows.
