- Research professor and post-doctorate
Project descriptions:
We are interested in designing scalable and interactive collision detection and motion planning techniques for
large-scale virtual environments and virtual prototyping. Some of large-scale CAD environments include Boeing
777 datasets and double eagle oil tanker models that take more than multiple gigabytes. We would like to design
efficient assembly/disassembly and other various virtual prototyping tools that can handle such large-scale virtual
environments. In this project, we will design scalable proximity queries (e.g., collision detection) for motion
planning problems in the context of large-scale virtual environment. We will also design interactive techniques
that are applicable to real robots in complex environments.
