From 2017 until end of August 2019 deecoob was successfully working on the research project “RECAM”. This was a cooperation project between deecoob Technology GmbH and the Forensic Sience Investigation Lab at the University of Applied Sciences Mittweida (HSMW). The abbreviation “RECAM” stands for retrospektive event monitoring for computer forensic enlightenment of copyright misuse on the basis of publicly available digital media. The goal was to develop a technology for automated, computer-forensic investigation of use and misuse of copyrights at music events. The application uses web crawlers and full-text indexers and provides interfaces with Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, epaper, and Web pages. The purpose is to analyze, process, and qualify textual data from publicly available sources.

The industrial partners Mercateo AG, chemmedia AG and deecoob Technology GmbH, together with the Technische Universität Dresden (TUD), worked on the joint R&D project “Visual Analytics Interfaces for Big Data Environments – VANDA” in the period 2016 to 2019. The aim of this project was to address the so-called four “V´s” – Volume, Velocity, Variety and Veracity – as the challenge of Big Data driven interfaces and applications. The research work was carried out both in the backend area, i.e. the efficient processing of Big Data, and in the frontend, i.e. the intuitive visualization of Big Data. In the course of the project, best practice solutions for visualization and backend processes were researched, developed and implemented in the form of demonstrators.
