Zwei Stellen als Wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiter zu besetzen
Im Rahmen eines Projekts mit dem Bundesamt für Kartographie und Geodäsie (BKG) wird am Thema
„Der zeitliche Wandel von Geodaten – Universelle Zeitreihenanalyse zur Bestimmung von Veränderungen und zuverlässige Vorhersagen“ geforscht. Am ikg sind hier zwei halbe Stellen zu besetzen, bei denen die eine sich mit der statistischen Analyse des zeitlichen Wandels auseinandersetzt, und die andere mit der automatischen Analyse von gescannten Altkarten, für welche Deep Learning Verfahren eingesetzt werden sollen. In beiden Projekten ist eine Promotion möglich und ausdrücklich erwünscht.
Das Projekt wird in Kooperation mit dem Institut für Photogrammetrie (IPI) der LUH und dem Datenbankinstitut der Jade-Hochschule durchgeführt und hat eine Laufzeit von 3 Jahren.

Open HiWi position for point cloud data annotation
Your main task is annotating the point cloud data for object detection and/or semantic segmentation, which means that you should draw boxes or label points to different categories with a point cloud labeling tool. The annotation tool will be provided.
Working time and place
- 20 - 40 hours/month. More compact working time is preferred.
- At the institute or at home if you can provide a capable computer for working.
Pay
- Regular pay according to the federal states and the university.
- At the trial period, you will sign a Minijob contract. The contract can be extended as needed.
How to apply
- Send your Transcript of records and CV to us via email if you are interested.
- You will get an email from us for a short interview if you match our requirements.

Open HiWi position for mixed reality simulation environment with Hololens 2
Introduction and goal of the work
Mixed reality (MR) is used to render 3D virtual content in the real world view using headsets like HoloLens 2. Superimposing holograms into the view of the real world can be used to realize virtual simulation settings with 3D avatars of virtual pedestrians moving in real world. Such an apparatus can be used for psychological behavioral simulation studies and also in traffic context.
To realize a stable mixed reality environment and for its use in pedestrian simulation studies, consistent placement of virtual content is important. This is also more important that the holograms remain stable as the user wearing the HoloLens would move in the real world. New MR tools like World Locking Tools (WLT) supported by Microsoft allow virtual to world transformations and the locking of virtual content. As an experimental apparatus, the system should support the dynamic placement of virtual content (3D avatars) using UI tools to support different experimental settings at runtime.
The work package for the above described work would involve QR code detection in mixed reality Toolkit, 3D virtual content placement via the Unity scripting and also server implementation with feature improvements for the same. The work would involve field tests with the HoloLens device in large indoor spaces and benchmarking.
Tasks and time frame
1. QR code detection and tracking using Microsoft SDK
2. Integrating QR Code detection using WLT
3. 3D avatar placement using Unity GameObjects and motion dynamics modelling via animation
4. Field testing of dynamic motion modeling with Mixed reality
5. System performance and benchmarking for device speed and processing using motion experiments
Resources
- Hololens 2
Requirements
- Knowledge of C++, C#; Unity Editor and completed projects with Unity
- Knowledge on UWP/ WLT and Visual Studio
