- | Objects in a human environment are usually found in challenging scenes. They can be stacked upon eachother, touching or occluding, can be found in drawers, cupboards, refrigerators and so on. A personal robot assistant in order to execute a task, needs to detect these objects and recognize them.

+ | 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 currently 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. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Requirements: | ||
+ | * Knowledge of 3D-Modelling tools. Blender would be highly preferred. | ||
+ | * Experience in Game Engine development. Ideally Unreal Engine 4 and C++. | ||
