Haptics Post Doc, Researcher, Internship Positions: POST-PC Research Group, ETRI, Korea
Project Description
We are seeking a highly motivated researcher to develop interactive touchscreens providing 3D haptic and visual information. The major targets of this project will be tactile display, flexible multi-touch screen and GUI design. Other haptics applications interacting with touchscreen will be also encouraged.
Qualification and experience
(1) Post-Doc or Senior Researcher
The candidate should have a PhD in HCI, haptics, computer graphics, robotics or a related field. H/W, S/W or deisign skills in haptics would be appreciated. Specific experience with tactile display or touch sensor technology in particular is not required, but would represent an important advantage over other candidates. Strong skill in electronic circuit design or computer programming (in particular Windows programming) is also an important prerequisite. Ability to work effectively in a team-based environment and leadership qualities are essential.
(2) Researcher
The candidate should have a Master Degree in HCI, haptics, computer graphics, robotics or a related field.
(3) Internship
The candidate should be a graduate student majoring HCI, haptics, computer graphics, robotics or a related field.
About the host institute
Since its foundation in 1976, "ETRI" has played a central role in helping Korea become the world's most advanced information and communication powerhouse as the country's largest government-funded research institute specializing in information and communications technology. Through the years, ETRI has developed commercialization technology for "the Digital Mobile Telecommunications System(CDMA)" to lay down the foundation for Korea's emergence as a mobile phone powerhouse, "Digital Multimedia Broadcasting(terrestrial DMB) technology" to institutionalize the "TV in my hand" culture, "WiBro technology" for mobile Internet, and "NoLA technology" as the 4th-generation mobile data transfer system.
Thr POST-PC Research Group at ETRI has investigated emerging technologies for new human-computer/macine interaction.
