The group for Virtual Environments and Computer Graphics at University College London (UCL) has an open post for a “Research Assistant/Research Fellow in Graphics Pipelines for Next Generation Mixed Reality Systems”.
The Graphics Pipelines for Next Generation Mixed Reality Systems Project is funded by the UK’s EPSRC. It focuses on new computer graphics algorithms for real-time rendering for very fast immersive displays such as head-mounted displays.
The project will integrate state-of-the-art tracking systems with custom displays to demonstrate end-to-end pipelines for mixed-reality with latency of around 1ms. We will work on new data structures and rendering strategies that are more appropriate for extremely low latency rendering.
This post is funded until 30 April 2023 in the first instance.

Dear colleagues,
we invite you to submit your research as a poster to EG EuroVis 2022! This year, EuroVis will be held June 13-17, 2022 in Rome, Italy.
The posters track is specifically intended to present late-breaking results, work in progress, follow-up extensions, application case studies, or evaluations of existing methods. In particular, it provides young researchers, especially postgraduate students, with valuable opportunities to receive feedback from other researchers and engage in stimulating discussions.
Submission Instructions
We solicit poster submissions in the form of a sketch (i.e., an extended abstract of at most 2 pages in the EuroVis poster format, with an additional page allowed for references only). We strongly encourage the submission of additional materials. For example, you can submit an additional PDF (without any page limit) that contains a number of example results, screenshots, an interaction sequence, etc. The poster draft can also be added as additional material (but is not mandatory for the submission). Finally, submissions can also include supplementary material such as videos or executable programs. In particular for interactive tools/approaches, a digital video is essential and thus strongly encouraged to allow the reviewers to assess the interactive aspects.
Poster sketches are to be submitted using the Poster sketches are submitted using the Precision Conference System (PCS)<https://new.precisionconference.com/>, according to the instructions in the submission guidelines section. Please note you shall select Eurographics as Society.
Any accepted posters are required to have at least one (paid) registered author to attend and present the poster at the conference.
Both a PDF version of the poster and the extended abstract will be included on the conference USB stick and also in the EG digital library with a DOI. The material in a poster/sketch can later be reused by the original authors for a more extensive publication (e.g., a full paper) with more detailed content and mature results, without being considered self-plagiarism.

Call for Papers
We welcome contributions in the form of full papers, short papers, viewpoint
papers and extended abstracts (posters). Submissions are optionally single-
or double-blind: authors may choose whether to anonymize their submission or
not. Reviewers' identities are not revealed.
Full Papers
A full paper submission is upto 8 pages describing completed research, plus
1 page of references only. Papers are refereed by members of the EGUK
programme committee. Authors of accepted papers are expected to give a
20-minute presentation at the conference. Accepted papers will appear in the
Eurographics digital library and will serve as full paper publications.
Short Papers
The purpose of short papers is to present late-breaking results,
work-in-progress, and follow-up extensions or evaluations of existing
methods. Short papers will be peer-reviewed in a one-stage process by an
international programme committee. They will be electronically archived and
are fully citable publications. Submissions for the short paper track should
be at most 4 pages, with an additional page allowed for references. Accepted
short papers will be presented orally at the conference in (approximately)
12-15 minute presentations.
Viewpoint Papers
CGVC also features a viewpoint paper track (also known as position paper)
which enables researchers a new possibility to publish their ideas.
Viewpoints articles offer detailed technical opinions on trends in visual
computing or reports on how visual computing has contributed to the
comprehension of data or phenomena. We encourage discussions of challenges
or limitations in today's methods and areas of potential new research
topics. We are also interested in application discussions that focus on the
physical, life or social sciences, engineering, or commerce, for example, or
related to the process of visual computing in general. We encourage an
emphasis on lessons learned from practical experience for application
discussions, particularly where visual computing has been employed in a
real, working environment. Viewpoint papers are submitted with author names
and affiliations. Accepted viewpoint papers will be electronically archived,
are fully citable publications and will be presented orally at the
conference in (approximately) 12-15 minute presentations.
Extended Abstracts / Posters
The purpose of this track is to present late-breaking results, work in
progress, and follow-up extensions or evaluations of existing methods. In
particular, it provides young researchers, especially postgraduate students,
with valuable opportunities to receive feedback from other researchers, and
engage in stimulating discussions. The poster track will be managed by the
co-chair team and the International Programme Committee (IPC). We solicit
poster submissions in the form of an extended abstract of at most 2 pages
(with an additional page allowed for references only). Posters will be
peer-reviewed in a one-stage process. Accepted posters, size A1 recommended,
will be presented at the poster viewing session of the conference.
In addition to directly submitted posters, some submissions to the full,
short and viewpoint paper tracks, that are not accepted for publication but
are deemed suitable, will be offered an opportunity to be presented as
posters. Such submissions will not require an additional review process.
Traditionally, the materials in a poster/extended abstract can be reused
later by the original authors for a more extensive publication (i.e., a full
paper) with more detailed content and mature results. This should not be
considered as self-plagiarism. However, as posters/extended abstracts are
citable, researchers are encouraged to acknowledge novel ideas and results
presented in posters/extended abstracts. A poster may describe a piece of
work in any aspect of visual computing. For posters, we particularly
encourage a summary report of collaborative projects, work-in-progress, and
application case studies.
Accepted abstracts do not appear in the Eurographics digital library. An
extended abstract and industrial project abstract are not considered as a
paper publication, instead being similar to a SIGGRAPH one-page "Talk" or to
a conference poster without an associated paper. As such, presenting an
extended abstract at this conference has no effect on your ability to
publish a fuller version of the same work in another venue.
Topics include, but are not limited to:
-Computer Graphics
-Visualisation
-Computer Vision
-Virtual Reality
-Visual Analytics
-Visual Data Science
-Computer Animation
-Computer-based Arts and Entertainment
-Image processing
-Acquisition and Reconstruction Techniques
-Graphics Architectures and Acceleration Hardware
-Medical Imaging
-Multimedia Visualisation
-Computer Games
-Rendering Techniques
-Scientific Visualisation and Big Data
-Information Visualisation and Visual Analytics
-Geospatial Visualisation
-Augmented Reality and Collaborative Environments
-Mobile Apps and Interactive Devices
-Human Computer Interaction, Robotics, and Haptics
-Modelling Methods
Location
We plan to hold this year's CGVC conference as an in-person event (as the
COVID-19 situation allows).
