Internship “3D Reconstruction for Mixed Reality Applications for Post Disaster Damage Assessement”

CENTER FOR DIGITAL SAFETY & SECURITY

As Austria's largest research and technology organisation for applied research, AIT works on substantial contributions to solving the major challenges of our time, climate change and digitalisation.

The Center for Digital Safety & Security located in Vienna invites applications for an internship. The experts from the Center for Digital Safety & Security are developing state-of-the-art information and communication technologies to ensure highly secure and reliable systems in the context of digitalisation and global networking.

The research field Computer Vision within the Competence Unit Data Science & Artificial Intelligence is leading in applied research of highly innovative aspects for efficient computer vision applications and model design.

Your tasks

• Under the guidance of an interdisciplinary team, you will work on 3D reconstruction algorithms, point clouds and Gaussian Splatting, to record and reconstruct a real environment on the fly.
• You will implement a VR application to visualize the reconstructed environment and work on camera calibration techniques to register labels set in Mixed Reality glasses to the reconstructed mesh.
• You will implement techniques to label damages in Mixed Reality.
• You will gain practical experience with one of the leading research companies in Austria.
• You support an international project and get exciting insights into the technological environment.

Your qualifications as an Ingenious Partner
