Two post-doc posts at UCL on next-generation online 3D models

I am pleased to advertise two post-doc posts in the Virtual Environments and Computer Graphics group at University College London. The posts will support the new EPSRC-funded project Open3D, which will look at next-generation online 3D models. The goal of the project is to support distributed editing of massive 3D models, and crowd-source two large 3D models, one in anatomy, one in city modelling.

For one of the posts we wish to recruit someone with web3d experience, or knowledge of large modelling/virtual reality systems:

For the second, we need someone with geometry processing knowledge

http://www.jobs.ac.uk/job/AKZ505/research-associate-in-computer-graphics-geometry-specialist/

The post post-holders will work Prof. Steed and Prof. Mitra, along with colleagues in the UCL Interaction Centre and domain specialists in the target areas.

Both posts are funded for three years in the first instance.

SensoriMotor interface for Collaborative Virtual Environments based on heterogeneous interactive devices: application to industrial design

VENISE group, LIMSI-CNRS - http://www.limsi.fr/venise &

ExSitu team, LRI/INRIA Saclay - http://www.inria.fr/equipes/ex-situ

University of Paris Sud, France.

Supervisor: patrick.bourdot@limsi.fr (VENISE group)

Co-advisor: cedric.fleury@lri.fr (ExSitu team)

Keywords:      Collaborative Virtual Environments (CVE), Virtual Reality (VR), Sensorimotor Interface, Computer Aided Design (CAD).

Abstract: In the research field of Collaborative Virtual Environments, the scientific challenge of this PhD is to develop a sensorimotor interface model which has a versatility potential to support heterogeneous interactive devices ranging from Wall-sized Displays up to Immersive Virtual Reality rooms. This research is motivated by the increasing need, in some industrial domains, for efficient collaborative interactions on large visualization and/or immersive systems, to perform scale-one activities on virtual mock-ups of the projects. These new working methods improve the productivity of product design, but the gesture interaction with 3D content in such systems often lack of accuracy. This PhD work aims to study Pseudo-Haptic and Haptic approaches to solve this problem. The challenge is to create a sensorimotor interface model based on these approaches, which will have the adaptability to support the various technologies available on different interconnected devices, for a set of collaborative tasks. This PhD will be carried out in the context of the Equipex DIGISCOPE project, a high-performance telepresence network for remote collaboration, located on Paris-Saclay campus and supported by the French National Research Agency.

TU Graz: PhD Position in 3D Shape Retrieval and Analysis

PhD Position in 3D Shape Retrieval and Analysis

The position is available at the Institute of Computer Graphics and Knowledge Visualization at TU Graz

(see http://www.cgv.tugraz.at). The position is fully funded for three years and includes a one year

research exchange with Nanyang Technical University, Singapore within the joint PhD Program in Visual

Computing of the two Universities (see http://cospace.sce.ntu.edu.sg/joint_degree/TUG.htm).

Research Focus and Environment

Due to recent advances in 3D acquisition and modeling, increasingly large amounts of 3D shape data

become available in many application domains. Coping with large 3D shape data requires effective and

efficient techniques to support 3D searching, exploring, analyzing and processing tasks. Our research

group works on feature-based approaches for 3D shape retrieval including sketch- and example-based

methods; clustering and classification of shape repositories for annotation and visual exploration; and on

similarity-based methods for restoration of fragmented or incomplete shapes.

The successful candidate will contribute to the group’s research efforts by developing, applying and

evaluating novel feature-based shape analysis methods to support one or more of the above mentioned

problems. The methods to be researched are informed by new application needs in domains such

as Computer Aided Design and Digital Archeology. The researcher will collaborate with experts from

relevant application domains to gather requirements, experimental data, and perform joint evaluation.

Our research group offers a pleasant working atmosphere in a motivated, cooperative, and technically

very well equipped environment. We offer excellent professional and personal development possibilities,

including participation in interesting research projects, a foreign exchange program, and a range of industry

contacts. The group is part of the Visual Computing research cluster in Graz, offering an excellent

scientific environment. The city of Graz and the Austrian state of Styria offer exceptional quality of living.

Requirements

We are looking for a highly motivated member for our research team with a Master degree in Computer

Science or a related field. Candidates have a background in Visual Computing techniques and are motivated

to take on basic research challenges in the areas described above, and demonstrate the novelty

and effectiveness of their methods by experimental evaluation and application. Practical programming

skills in Java, C++ or other suitable language are required. Applicants are fluent in English and enjoy

collaborative work in an international environment.

KTP (knowledge transfer partnership) project at Bournemouth University

We are seeking to fill the role of a computer graphics/games programmer working on a KTP (knowledge transfer partnership) project at Bournemouth University, UK. This is for a 30-month fixed term contract and involves collaboration with an external company (Nautilus International Risk Consultants Limited).

The role will involve the researching of all types of 3D terrain generation applications and then the development of proprietary prototype software that will allow for rapid, automatic/semi-automatic 3D terrain content generation for use within the Virtual Battle Space (VBS) 3 game engine.

In addition to this, the role will involve embedding the capability within the company to enable further development and exploitation of the software. This is a challenging yet potentially very rewarding opportunity to apply creative and innovative thinking, as well as strong technical skills, that will result in an innovative and exploitable capability.
