Internship/Master thesis project in 3D hand modelling and reconstruction
About project:
Capturing 3D hand movements and reconstructing realistic hand models are crucial for real time hand object interaction in virtual/mixed reality environments. Recovering realistic hand poses is a challenging task due to the complexity of the hand shapes with 27 degrees of freedom, self occlusions and occlusions caused by physical objects. This project aims to tackle the problem of reconstructing a realistic hand mesh model with the texture of a human hand from a large dataset. The statistical models of the hands will be constructed. The ultimate mesh model must follow the correct geometrical and physical constraints of a real human hand. A large dataset of hands captured from various human subjects from mutiviews and the corresponding point cloud data is available in order to create the articulated non-rigid hand mesh model. The outcome must be compatible with standard graphics packages, and must fit any human hand shapes and poses.
ManoMotion is looking for a passionate and innovative intern or master thesis student in computer science, media technology, mathematics or relevant engineering subjects to work on the described project for a duration of three to six months. The expected outcome of the project will be implementations of the developed methods for realistic reconstruction of human hand model for real time interaction in XR applications.
