Vos missions en quelques mots
These last years have seen an explosion of novel tactile technologies providing various haptic sensations across all the user’s body. However, while these technologies have now been made available, virtual reality systems are still struggling to convey compelling tactile sensations for 3D interaction. The project ADVHANDTURE aims at introducing an original computational approach for handling multimodal tactile feedback within immersive environments. For that purpose, the project relies on a multidisciplinary methodology, gathering knowledge in human perception, haptics, virtual reality mechanics and 3D interactions.
Within the context of ADVHANDTURE, the goal of the post-doct is to design experimental studies on the human hand perception of the combination of haptic stimuli in virtual reality. The main scientific question relies on the combination of tactile stimuli within the hand and how it is perceived in virtual reality. For that purpose, the main objective of the post-doc is to study how we can combine haptic stimuli through the design of experimental studies in virtual reality. The post-doc will start with the analysis of the literature. We will then proceed by developing several key aspects:
1) study the perceptual interaction and conflicts between vision and haptics when interacting objects in virtual reality,
2) design experimental studies combining haptic stimuli for evaluating the human perception,
3) analyze the collected data,
4) share the data with the community through international publications.
Profil recherché
The applicant should have a strong interest in working in a multidisciplinary team. Ideally, she/he has an experience in haptics domain:
● skills on neurosciences;
● knowledge in computer science and/or virtual reality;
● expertise in conducting perceptual experiments and analyzing the data;
● knowledge in data dissemination.
The candidate should be able to speak and write in English.
18 month contract.
