Jobbeschreibung

Our Image Processing department has been specialising in traditional and AI-based image processing for over 25 years. We build industrial-grade inspection systems and develop solutions for the recognition, classification and characterisation of images in a wide range of dimensions, wavelengths and resolutions.

Background: In computer graphics, accurately modeling and controlling structural elements such as cracks, grains, and dots patterns is essential for creating realistic and detailed virtual environments. Traditional procedural methods provide flexibility but often fall short in capturing complex structural intricacies. This project focuses on enhancing procedural generation by integrating Point Process Texture Basis Functions (PPTBF) with Open Shading Language (OSL).

What you will do

• Integrate PPTBF with OSL: Use OSL to implement the PPTBF algorithm in 3D environments: like a couple of point process, feature function and window function.
• Optimize Procedural Algorithms: Develop more efficient methods for creating and managing complex structural elements in 3D environments.
• Apply to Real-World Scenarios: Test the integrated approach on applications such as inspection planning.
• Optional: Build a Parameter-Fitting Database: Create a database to accelerate the process of fitting PPTBF parameters.

What you bring to the table

• Ongoing studies in Computer Science, Computer Graphics, or a related field at the RPTU.
• Good at Python and/or C++.
• Basic knowledge of computer graphics and procedural generation techniques.
• Familiarity with shading languages like OSL is a plus, but not required.
• Very good knowledge of English.

What you can expect

• Collaboration at eye level as well as the opportunity to combine your knowledge from your studies with practical experience at the interface between business and science and to contribute your own ideas.
• Our institute is located within walking distance of the RPTU Kaiserslautern-Landau campus.
• Flexibility in your working hours enables you to achieve an optimal work-study balance.
• Versatile support in the preparation of your thesis.

We value and promote the diversity of our employees' skills and therefore welcome all applications - regardless of age, gender, nationality, ethnic and social origin, religion, ideology, disability, sexual orientation and identity. Severely disabled persons are given preference in the event of equal suitability.

With its focus on developing key technologies that are vital for the future and enabling the commercial utilization of this work by business and industry, Fraunhofer plays a central role in the innovation process. As a pioneer and catalyst for groundbreaking developments and scientific excellence, Fraunhofer helps shape society now and in the future.
