Postdoc in Computer Vision and Computer Graphics

I am looking for a highly motivated Postdoctoral Research Associate in Computer Vision and Computer Graphics to join my team in Bath to work on the future of VR using dynamic scene reconstruction from multi-view video!

The main focus of this job is to research and develop novel algorithms for reconstructing the 3D geometry of the environments from the captured imagery by extending multi-view geometry/photogrammetry techniques to handle dynamic 360° environments. Extending image-based rendering to 360° environments will then enable 6-DoF motion within a photorealistic 360° environment with high visual fidelity, and will result in detailed 360° environments covering all possible viewing directions.

You will join the vibrant Visual Computing group at Bath, which comprises 30 doctoral students, 5 post-doctoral researchers, 2 research software engineers and 11 academics, and presents many opportunities for collaborative work and shared publications.
