| − | The National Center for Microscopy and Imaging Research (NCMIR) located at UCSD and at Calit2 (http://www.ncmir.ucsd.edu) is s looking for several talented, creative and enthusiastic students with programming ability to develop software for a variety of research projects. The positions offer students the opportunity to work with leading edge media and interactive technologies such as HD streams, high-resolution (100 M pixel-plus) displays, ultra-high resolution imaging data, and 3D IR-based optical tracking systems. There is the opportunity for students to develop some of the research in to thesis projects and to participate in authoring of publications.

Revision as of 19:44, 12 May 2009
Post-Doc for Virtual Reality Research
We are looking for a post-doc with experience in computer graphics, virtual reality, augmented reality, scientific visualization, and/or human-computer interfaces to work on research projects involving the high-end virtual reality infrastructure at Calit2, one of the most advanced virtual reality labs in the country. Our infrastructure includes the 15 screen StarCAVE, the autostereoscopic Varrier, a 4 megapixel passive stereo C-Wall, the personal Varrier, multiple tiled display walls, etc.). We are offering a competitive salary and a great work environment at UCSD.
For more information and to apply please contact Jurgen Schulze
Students for How Much Information Project
We are looking for one or more undergraduate or graduate students to work on the How Much Information (HMI) project, to create an interactive 3D visualization tool for the data we gather from businesses and other places where data is stored. This job requires a solid foundation in the programming language C++ and prior experience with OpenGL or DirectX. We use the Linux operating system in this work, so knowledge in shell usage and scripting languages are a plus. Also, any interest or experience with human-computer interfaces is welcome.
Reference: a prior study on HMI has been done at UC Berkeley in 2003
Hourly pay: $13-$15 (depending on qualification), or possibly a GSR fellowship
Contact: Jurgen Schulze
