Bsc: Computer Science Internship - Web technology for 3D interactivity

Are you a motivated to push the boundaries of web technologies for 3D visualization and interactivity? Do you want to take on the challenge of using 3D web technologies with intricate and complex models of our printing systems?

Your assignment
Your goal is to research cutting-edge web technologies like WebGL and WebXR, combined with powerful tools like Babylon.js and Three.js. You’ll explore how these technologies can bring highly sophisticated printing machines to life in an interactive 3D space. Along the way, you will uncover what’s possible, tackle performance challenges, and push the boundaries of web-based 3D.

You can take this project in several exciting directions:
•    Create browser-based 3D experiences to explore printers with interactive annotations.
•    Investigate and solve performance challenges when working with large, complex 3D models in the browser.
•    Experiment with future trends, like integrating AR/VR using WebXR, to redefine how users interact with 3D content.

This assignment offers broad scope and flexibility to pursue what excites you most. As knowledge in this area is still developing within the company, you will have the opportunity to work independently and play a key role in shaping future projects. You will work in the service department, where your solutions could have a real impact on how we interact with and maintain complex systems. If you enjoy combining creativity, technology, and problem-solving, this is a chance to make a real difference!
