 doctoral  position   in image processing and augmented reality
----------------------------------------------------------------

A doctoral fellowship is    available at INRIA Lorraine/LORIA  in  nancy
(France) for three years.  The ISA  team works in various fundamental
areas
such as geometry (differential,  algebraic, projective),  numerical
analysis 
(domain decomposition method),  algorithmics  (complexity, 
parallelism),  
for the purpose  of developing  applications in the areas of computer
vision 
and computer graphics.

Privileged   application  areas are:  Architecture   and   Archology,
Earth Sciences (oil prospecting), Life Sciences  (medical imaging). 
(see the
URL http://www.loria.fr/isa)

Augmented reality (AR) is a technique in which the  user's view is
enhanced
or augmented  with additional information  generated from a computer
model.
In order to  make AR systems  effective, the computer generated objects
and
the real  scene  must be combined seamlessly  so  that the  virtual
objects
align  well with the   real ones. It is  therefore  essential  to
determine 
accurately the  viewpoint and the  optical  properties of the  cameras.
Our team  has now  a good  experience  in viewpoint  computation (see 
demos at
http://www.loria.fr/~berger).   Now we plan to design  a (nearly) real
time
augmented reality  system in   order to be    able to consider 
interactive
applications (such as games  or virtual visits). This work  takes place
in an
ESPRIT Project.

The appointee's primary research areas will be:

- real time viewpoint computation using vision based techniques

- Interaction between real and virtual objects

- Visualization in a see through display

Applications should include a full CV plus names and addresses of one
 referee.  Applications should be sent to berger@l ....... AND
gsimon@l .......

The starting date is october, 2001.
