Student assistant in the field of 3D rendering of novel optical surface materials

Darmstadt, Deutschland Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft Vollzeit

Optical material acquisition tries to record and reproduce physically realistic effects of different materials, especially their view and light dependence. The challenge is to meet the best tradeoff between the highest realism which comes at massive data consumption and performance requirements on one side, and approximations on the other, which run in real-time but need to be optimized to maintain sufficient realism.   What you will do The tasks focus on existing optical material scanning systems, which generate a material representation using a hemisphere of light directions and one to many viewing directions, and already produce a 3D material rendering of arbitrary objects. Tasks range from using the systems to acquire optical material behavior and generate renderings, over extension and optimization of already implemented methods of the systems towards better performance and visual quality, to adding support for existing 3D frameworks such as the Unity Engine. The task spectrum allows for familiarizing with the domain of optical material behavior acquisition at a decent pace.   What you bring to the table Very good C++ programming skills GPU & Shader programming, ideally knowledge of PBR (Physically based rendering) Ideally experience with 3D frameworks such as the Unity Engine Interest in implementing, testing and discussing various scientific approaches Knowledge and interest in 3D graphics, computer vision and image processing Responsible independent worker Proficient English skills     The working time consists of 10-20 hours per week. The position is initially limited to three months, an extension is intended. We value and promote the diversity of our employees' skills and therefore welcome all applications - regardless of age, gender, nationality, ethnic and social origin, religion, ideology, disability, sexual orientation and identity. Severely disabled persons are given preference in the event of equal suitability. Remuneration according to the general works agreement for employing assistant staff.
