University of Bremen, Germany: PhD research position

PhD research position

with the Computer Graphics and Virtual Reality Group

at the University of Bremen, Germany

Job Description:

The work in this position will comprise research on 3D geometric algorithms, virtual reality, and 3D visualization techniques. In many of the application areas we are currently working on (e.g., space mission simulation or operating rooms), efficient collision detection, penetration computation, and collision handling algorithms are important enabling technologies. In addition, visualization and interaction techniques are necessary for providing good understanding of the progress and the results of the simulation. Often, both the visualization and the interaction take place in 3D virtual environments.

The work will comprise the design and development of those techniques and algorithms, in collaboration with a small team working already on various interactive and VR simulator projects.

The tasks will also comprise a small amount of help with teaching in the computer science program (e.g., as teaching assistant).
