and shape of real world materials and scenes in controlled as well as 
uncontrolled conditions.

The position offers an exciting opportunity for conducting 
internationally leading and impactful research, which aims to solve 
real-world problems in acquisition and modelling of objects and scenes 
at the boundary of graphics, vision and imaging. There will also be
