Postdoctoral Research Assistant – 3D learning using haptic interfaces (REF: SF08048)
School of Systems Engineering, University of Reading, Reading UK
Full-time, fixed term for three years
We seek to appoint a PDRA for a 3 year post on an interdisciplinary project that is investigating the role of simulated haptics (touch and manipulation) in 3D learning. The project draws on expertise within the University of Reading, as well as King’s College London Dept of Education and two local schools, and will investigate haptic access to science teaching. This position will be primarily concerned with the technical aspects of the research especially software design and implementation as well as, rapid prototyping of the teaching technology. Work will include interfacing to the haptic and visual devices, developing the visual environment and working with the educationalists and students.
