My name is Philipp Rauschnabel and I am a professor of digital marketing and media innovation at the Universität der Bundeswehr München. There, my research team and I deal with new reality formats – especially augmented and virtual reality. My research is both theoretical and application-oriented. We cooperate in research and teaching with companies and associations, present results at conferences, publish them in peer-reviewed journals, and discuss developments in the media.

In 2021, Microsoft Academics listed me as a top 5 AR researcher worldwide based on citation performance (i.e., scientific impact) over the past 5 years. Kumar (2021) lists me as a top 15 AR marketing researcher worldwide based on citations (focus: commerce).
