Project-Team Presentation

Joint project-team with LRI (CNRS and University of Paris Sud), Located in Orsay.

This project considers all methods needed for producing sequences of computer-generated images. There are three key tracks:

• computer graphics, where we are seeking to define algorithms;
• simulation, with the aim of matching our algorithms against numerical values measured on a real site;
• the system organization to process "life-size" cases and validate our approach by implementing them.

Research themes

• Modelling complex scenes (3D) and especially the shape of objects in terms of constraints and properties.
• Simulation of lighting: introduction of lighting models based on physics.
• Simulation of physical systems: study of computing diagrams needed to produce the equations controlling these systems.
• Parallel algorithms: research into reducing the complexity of sequential algorithms and the study of parallel schemes for these algorithms.

International and industrial relations

• Giat-Industrie: Virtual Training.
• RNRT VTHD++
• ROBEA ECOVIA : Study of Visuo-Haptic Integration
• TCAN AMELIE : Multidisciplinary Approach for Cognition and Interaction in Immersive Virtual Environments
• ROBEA Bayesian Models for Motion Generation
• RNTL SALOME2
• NoE: Intuition : core group member
