Marie curie training site : virtual reality and computer graphics

Objective

The Marie curie training site: Virtual Reality and computer graphics (MAVRIC) has available Marie Curie Fellowships supported by the European Commission for periods of between 3 and 12 months. Candidates must already be enrolled on a doctoral programme at their host institution and looking to enhance their doctoral studies in the fields of virtual and augmented reality, computer graphics, human factors for VR, and multimedia. MAVRIC can offer training in any of the following skills to enhance your doctoral studies:
- Software - Java, C++, UML, applied to VR, AR and CG
- Digital Chip design, VHDL and synthesis focus on CG accelerator design
- Multimedia systems and services
- Virtual reality, augmented reality and virtual prototyping focused on two new IST projects starting summer 2001-05- 14 - ARCO IST 2000-28336 (Augmented Representation of Cultural Objects)
- VIPERS IST 2000-30023 (Virtual IP Environment for Rapid Silicon)
- Computer graphics algorithms for 3D game design - Special effects used in the film and television industry
- Digital video production, editing and broadcasting in a new state-of-the-art Media Technology Laboratory
These skills will be applied in the following research fields:
- Digital system design and fabrication for Computer Graphics
- Software engineering - 3D computer graphics-modeling and animation, photo-realistic rendering (including parallel rendering on an SGI Origin 2000 - IR2 Supercomputer) and real-time projective algorithms for acceleration hardware for games
- Virtual reality environments, displays, stereoscopic vision systems, haptic devices for human interaction
- Virtual and augmented reality for cultural heritage environments (ARCO)
- Virtual Prototyping of electronic systems (VIPERS) Interested applicants should apply to the Marie curie training site: Virtual Reality and computer graphics (MAVRIC), Centre for VLSI and Computer Graphics, School of Engineering, University of Sussex, England, BN1 9QT.
