+== Scene Format Conversion Tool for Robotics Simulation (MA Thesis) ==
-== Realistic Grasping using Unreal Engine (BA/MA) ==
+**Motivation:**
-{{  :teaching:gsoc:topic2_unreal.png?nolink&150|}}
+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.
-The objective of the project is to implement var-
+{{:multiformat.png?400|}}
-ious human-like grasping approaches in a game developed using [[https://www.unrealengine.com/|Unreal Engine]].
-The game consist of a household environment where a user has to execute various given tasks, such as cooking a dish, setting the table, cleaning the dishes etc. The interaction is done using various sensors to map the users hands onto the virtual hands in the game.
+**Task Description:**
-In order to improve the ease of manipulating objects the user should
+The objective of this project is to develop a universal parser capable of converting scene descriptions between common formats. The following key steps are involved:
-be able to switch during runtime the type of grasp (pinch, power
-grasp, precision grip etc.) he/she would like to use.
-Requirements:
-  * Good programming skills in C++
-  * Good knowledge of the Unreal Engine API.
-  * Experience with skeletal control / animations / 3D models in Unreal Engine.
+  - Create a model to represent and store the scene graph.
+  - Implement import functions for the model to handle scene descriptions in any of the supported formats.
+  - Implement export functions for the model to generate scene descriptions in any of the supported formats.

-== Kitchen Activity Games in a Realistic Robotic Simulator (BA/MA)==
+  * A strong passion for robotics.
- {{ :research:gz_env1.png?200|}}
+  * Dedication to the chosen topic.
+  * Eager to learn.
-Developing new activities and improving the current simulation framework done under the [[http://gazebosim.org/|Gazebo]] robotic simulator. Creating a custom GUI for the game, in order to launch new scenarios, save logs etc.

+== Generating Comics about Everyday Experiences of a Robot (BA Thesis) ==
+Summary:
+  * Query experience data from an existing database
+  * Retrieve situations of interest
+  * Recreate the scene in a 3D environment
+  * Apply a comic shader
+  * Find good camera position for moments of interest
+  * Generate a PDF summarizing the experiences as a comic strip

+== Übersetzung einer globalen Produktklassifikation in eine bestehende Ontologie (BA Thesis) ==
+In dieser Arbeit soll die GS1 Produktklassifikation in eine Ontologie transformiert werden. Der GS1 Produktklassifikationsstandard ist online ( https://gpc-browser.gs1.org/) einsehbar. Anschließend soll in einem Jupyter Notebook anhand eines Beispiels gezeigt werden, wie andere Ontologien mit der erstellten Taxonomie verbunden werden können.
+Die Aufgaben dazu sind:
+  * Einarbeitung in Web Scraping und Abfrage der Daten von GS1
+  * Einarbeitung in Owlready und Erstellen der Taxonomie
+  * Erstellung des Jupyter Notebooks mit einem Beispiel, wie andere Ontologien verbunden werden können (die Beispielontologie wird gestellt)

+== Development of Modules for Robot Perception (Student Job / HiWi) ==
+In our research group, we focus on the development of modern robots that can make use of the potential of game engines. One particular research direction is the combination of computer vision with game engines.
+In this context, we are offering multiple Hiwi positions / student jobs for the following tasks:
+  * Software development to create Interfaces between ROS and Unreal Engine 4 (mainly C++)
+  * Software development for our Robot Perception framework [[http://robosherlock.org/|RoboSherlock]] which contains many algorithms for computer vision problems (mainly C++)
 Requirements:
-  * Good programming skills in C/C++
+  * Experience in C++.
-  * Basic physics/rendering engine knowledge
+  * Basic understanding of the ROS middleware and Linux.
-  * Gazebo simulator basic tutorials
+The spoken language in this job is german or english, based on your preference.

+== Game Engine Developer and 3D-Modelling  (Student Job / HiWi) ==
+A recent development in the field of AI is the usage of photorealistic simulations, for example to create digital twins of environments like households or  [[https://iottechnews.com/news/2021/apr/13/bentley-systems-nvidia-omniverse-create-real-time-digital-twins/|factories]].
+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.
+Requirements:
+  * Knowledge of 3D-Modelling tools. Blender would be highly preferred.
+  * Experience in Game Engine development. Ideally Unreal Engine 4 and C++.
+The spoken language in this job is german or english, based on your preference.
