About this position
Exciting opportunity at Inria Rennes for candidates interested in Extended Reality (XR), Haptics, and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). The Seamless research team is recruiting two PhD students and one PostDoc as part of the EU Horizon Europe project OmenXR.
PhD 1: Multimodal Reconstruction and Inference for XR Collaboration
This project focuses on real-time capture of multimodal data from physical environments, scene understanding, object detection, tactile characteristics, and the use of foundation models to improve multimodal representations for XR collaboration.
PhD 2: Haptic and Tactile Rendering for Teleoperation
This project covers haptic interfaces, spatialized tactile rendering, wearable actuators (vibrotactile, force-feedback, skin-stretch), cross-modal rendering, sensory fidelity, and user cognitive load, with validation through user studies and quantitative metrics.
PostDoc: XR/Haptics/HCI Expert
The postdoc will contribute expertise in multimodal reconstruction or haptic/tactile rendering and help co-supervise the PhD students.
