About us
The UCL Department of Computer Science is the leading computer science research department in the UK, ranked #2 in the most recent Research Excellence Framework (REF2021). It carries out research, undergraduate, and postgraduate teaching across all areas of theoretical and applied computer science.
About the role
The Multi-Sensory Devices (MSD) group at UCL is an interdisciplinary research group with a core interest in creating new forms of interactive multi-modal user experiences through the design and implementation of novel sensors and actuators. Duties for the Research Fellow would include:
• To develop precise, fast and stable acoustic levitation techniques to manipulate multiple objects (e.g., particles, fabric) in mid-air by using the combination of computational acoustic holography and computer graphics.
• To create interactive applications of multi-modal 3D displays using the levitation techniques developed.
About you
The position would be suitable for someone interested in using their computational skills for acoustic levitation to develop a new multi-modal 3D display, with experience in one or more of the following areas: 1. a) Computational holography (holographic displays, holographic imaging) 2. b) Acoustics (ultrasound modulation, levitation) 3. c) Computer graphics (displays, animation). d) Optimisation or machine learning.
