CALL FOR PARTICIPATION The 2017 ACM SIGGRAPH Conference on Motion in Games 2017 (MIG) November 8-10, 2017, Barcelona, Spain <http://mig2017.virvig.eu/> http://mig2017.virvig.eu/ REGISTRATION: **** Early bird deadline approaching: October 12th 2017 ******** <http://www.regonline.com/MIG2017> http://www.regonline.com/MIG2017 ============================================================ We invite you to participate in the 10th ACM SIGGRAPH Conference on Motion in Games (MIG) 2017, November 8-10 in Barcelona, Spain. MIG is sponsored by ACM and held in cooperation with Eurographics. Motion plays a crucial role in interactive applications, such as VR, AR, and video games. Characters move around, objects are manipulated or move due to physical constraints, entities are animated, and the camera moves through the scene. Even the motion of the player nowadays is used as input to such interactive systems. Motion is currently studied in many different areas of research, including graphics and animation, game technology, robotics, simulation, computer vision, and also physics, psychology, and urban studies. Cross-fertilization between these communities can considerably advance the state-of-the-art in the area. The goal of the Motion in Games conference is to bring together researchers from this variety of fields to present their most recent results, to initiate collaborations, and to contribute to the establishment of the research area. The conference will consist of regular paper sessions, poster presentations, and as well as presentations by a selection of internationally renowned speakers in all areas related to interactive systems and simulation. The conference includes entertaining cultural and social events that foster casual and friendly interactions among the participants. Best regards, Nuria Pelechano, MIG conference chair Carol O'Sullivan and Julien Pettré, MIG program chairs

Funded PhD Positions in Geometric Computing / Computer Graphics / Virtual Reality - Bremen

by eurographics＠eg.org

Funded PhD Positions in Geometric Computing / Computer Graphics / Virtual Reality The work in this position will be carried out within the project "EASE - Everyday Activity Science and Engineering", which is to perform fundamental research to enable robots to perform human everyday activities, such as setting a table or loading a dish washer. One strand of research of the CGVR lab in this endeavor is sub-project H01 ("Acquiring activity models by situating people in virtual environments"), where we will deal specifically with the challenge of grasping. Here, the task is to develop novel methods such that a human user can grasp virtual objects using a virtual hand with high simulation fidelity and high dexterity. The goal is to allow humans to interact with virtual objects just like in real live, and to study their grasping behaviors under a large variety of scenarios and parameters. The other strand of research is sub-project R03 ("Embodied simulation-enabled reasoning"), where we are to develop algorithms that enable robots to "envision" the outcomes of their tentative plans by simulating the real world around them, before they actually follow through with their plan. This requires novel methods for faster-than-realtime physically-based simulation and the development of predicates in order to evaluate the outcomes. The work will involve research on geometric real-time algorithms and physically-based simulation. In addition, it will involve computer graphics and virtual reality, in general. Also, while we don't prove theorems, you should be comfortable with mathematical thinking and applying maths.
