 +== Knowledge-enabled PID Controller for 3D Hand Movements in Virtual Environments (BA/MA Thesis) ==
 +
 +Implementing a force-, velocity- and impulse-based PID controller for precise and responsive hand movements in a virtual environment. The virtual environment used in Unreal Engine in combination with Virtual Reality devices. The movements
 +of the human user will be mapped to the virtual hands, and controlled via the implemented PID controllers.
 +The controller should be able to dynamically tune itself depending on the executed actions (opening/closing a drawer or lifting a heavy object) in combination with the physical limitations of the physics engine (dynamic update rates).
 +
 +Requirements:
 +  * Good C++ programming skills
 +  * Familiar with PID controllers and control theory
 +  * Experience with simulators/physics-/game- engines
 +  * Familiar with Unreal Engine API
   * Familiar with version-control systems (git)   * Familiar with version-control systems (git)

 +== Situational awareness in kitchen environments (MA Thesis) ==
 +
 +This is a knowledge representation topic including knowledge graphs. The idea is so link external Web-knowledge to an existing knowledge framework in order to include situational awareness so that a robot acting in a household environment can infer what an object is used for in a given situation.
 +
 +A result would be that a spoon next to a bowl with cereal would be used for eating while a spoon on a stove next to a pot would be used for stirring.
 +
 +requirements:
 +  * Work with KnowRob knowledge processing framework
 +  * Work with knowledge graphs and Linked Data to create a situational awareness knowledge graph that can be linked to KnowRob
 +  * Implement reasoning about situations (based on perceived environment) and object use

 +== Development of Modules for Robot Perception and Game Engine Technology (Hiwi Job) ==
 +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. One particular research direction, is the combination of computer vision with game engines.
 +In this context, we are currently offering multiple Hiwi positions 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.
 +  * 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++)
