Computer Vision Engineer for 3D Garment Reconstruction

As ETH's central hub for artificial intelligence, the ETH AI Center bring together researchers of AI foundations, applications, and implications across all departments. It fosters research excellence, industry innovation, and AI entrepreneurship. You will collaborate closely with other research scientists and engineers to transform cutting-edge research into robust, production-quality systems. We are seeking an expert in 3D garment reconstruction from multi-view images to join our team at the ETH AI Center.

Project background

We are looking to fill this role as part of an Innosuisse project where ETH is the research partner alongside implementation partner Vestir AI. In this project we are working on revolutionizing online fashion shopping through the use of advanced 3D Computer Vision and Computer Graphics techniques to digitize human avatars and garments in 3D. Within this project, your role is to advance our existing algorithms that reconstruct 3D garments from multi-view images.

Job description

• Develop and improve methods for 3D garment reconstruction from multi-view image data
• Research and implement techniques for appearance capture and material modeling, including BRDF estimation
• Work on physically-based and data-driven representations of garments and textiles
• Collaborate with researchers and engineers across vision, graphics, and simulation
• Translate research prototypes into production-quality systems

This is a fixed-term position for 6-12 months depending on availability

Profile

The ideal candidate has a strong background in computer vision and computer graphics, with deep experience in appearance reconstruction and material modeling.
