Alexander von Franqué

Welcome to my personal website.

I was a Senior Software Engineer at Insider Navigation, working on Indoor Navigation using Augmented Reality.
Previously, I have also worked at all about apps, Steamclock Software and mgSolutions, building some great mobile applications.
I have a strong interest in education. In my spare time, I read a lot and try to improve my piano skills.

Personal Projects

UML Quiz
I have designed and developed UML Quiz, a mobile educational quiz for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. I also provide maintenance and updates. UML Quiz is used in teaching at Vienna University of Technology. You can download it for free on the App Store.

Quantum Physics Videos
I've created a video series on the double slit experiment. It explains what the term 'observation' really means when talking about quantum phenomena.

Education

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science and Visual Computing from Vienna University of Technology. I have also taken numerous courses in Philosophy, Physics, and Communication Sciences at University of Vienna.

In 2014, I was accepted to the Masters of Educational Technology and Applied Learning Science program at Carnegie Mellon University's School of Computer Science. I was also nominated for a Fulbright Scholarship, but didn't attend the program for financial reasons.
