Prof. Dr.-Ing. Veit Senner
Academic Career and Research Areas
The research of Veit Senner (b. 1959) focuses on the interaction between humans, sports equipment and the environment, covering aspects such as biomechanics, user ergonomics, safety and subjective experience.
Senner studied mechanical engineering at TUM and received a doctorate for his work on product development. He completed a second course of study in sports science, majoring in high-performance sports, also at TUM. He then worked in industry for 6 years at TÜV Süddeutschland in the field of medical health sports. Senner is a scientific advisor in court cases involving sports injuries and patent litigation in the field of sports technology. He is chairman of the working group on Snow Sports at Universities and of an ISO standards committee.
