- | [1] www.robohow.eu\\ | + | **Motivation:** |
- | [2] http:// | + | |
+ | With robotics playing a significant role in various domains, simulation is essential for developing and testing algorithms. Multiple simulators are available, each with its own specialized format (SDF, USD, MJCF, URDF, FBX) for describing scenes. This diversity of formats makes it challenging to transfer scenarios between simulators. Therefore, a versatile parser that can convert scene descriptions between these formats is highly valuable. | ||
- | == Depth-Adaptive Superpixels (BA/MA)== | + | {{:multiformat.png?400|}} |
- | {{ :research: | + | |
- | We are currently investigating a new set of sensors (RGB-D-T), which is a combination of a kinect with a thermal image camera. Within this project we want to enhance the Depth-Adaptive Superpixels (DASP) to make use of the thermal sensor data. Depth-Adaptive Superpixels oversegment an image taking into account the depth value of each pixel. | + | |
- | Since the current implementation of DASP is not very performant for high resolution images, there are several options for doing a project in this field like reimplementing DASP using CUDA, investigating how thermal data can be integrated, ... | + | **Task Description: |

+ | == Integration of Novel Objects into Digital Twin Knowledge Bases (MA Thesis) == | ||
+ | |||
+ | In this thesis, the goal is to make a robotic system learn new objects automatically. | ||
+ | The system should be able to generate the necessary models required for re-detecting it again and also consult online information sources to automatically acquire knowledge about it. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The focus of the thesis would be twofold: | ||
+ | * Develop methods to automatically infer the object class of new objects. This would include perceiving it with state of the art sensors, constructing a 3d model of it and then infer the object class from online information sources. | ||
+ | * In the second step the system should also infer factual knowledge about the object from the internet and assert it into a robotic knowledgebase. Such knowledge could, for example, include the category of this product, typical object properties like its weight or typical location and much more. | ||
- | For tracking people, the use of particle filters is a common approach. However, the quality of those filters heavily depends on the way particles are spread. In this thesis, a library for the physical simulation of a human model is to be implemented. | ||

+ | A recent development in the field of AI is the usage of photorealistic simulations, | ||
+ | In our research group, we focus on the development of modern robots that can make use of the potential of game engines. This requires a high degree of specialized game engine plugins that can simulate certain aspects of our research. Another important task is the creation of 3d models. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Therefore, we are offering multiple Hiwi positions / student jobs for the following tasks: | ||
+ | * Modelling of objects for the use in Unreal Engine 4. | ||
+ | * Creation of specific simulation aspects in Unreal Engine 4. For example the development of interactable objects. | ||
