Stellenbeschreibung:

The DLR Institute of Software Technology sees software as a catalyst for research and innovation. The institute's staff, currently numbering around 200, make a significant contribution to advancements in the fields of aviation, space, energy, transportation, and security through the development of state-of-the-art software solutions and innovative research. Our areas of competence include reliable and safety-critical software systems, artificial intelligence, high-performance computing and quantum computing, human-system interaction and visualisation, software and systems engineering as well as digital platforms and digital twins. ## What to expect The Visual Computing and Engineering department develops interactive visualization and modeling methods to collaboratively make digital twins and complex technical systems experientially accessible – from the early design phase to the analysis of large scientific datasets in immersive 3D environments. The department develops a real-time solar system visualization called CosmoScout VR. The application is used for visualizing scientific data in the solar system for either retrospective data analysis or for mission planning. The goal of this thesis is to evaluate a renderer based on Googles Cesium-Platform. Cesium enables rendering of 3D-Tiles, which is one of the newest OGC standards and allows to render complex global scenes. ## Your tasks - Researching and analysing Google's Cesium platform to understand its functionality and capabilities in the context of 3D tiles and global scenes. - Evaluate the suitability of the Cesium platform for integration into CosmoScout VR, particularly with regard to the visualisation of scientific data in the solar system. - Develop a prototype or test environment to evaluate the performance and compatibility of the Cesium-based renderer with existing CosmoScout VR components. - Conduct comparative tests between the existing renderer and the Cesium-based renderer to identify differences in performance, quality and user experience. - Document the evaluation results and make a recommendation on how to proceed with the integration of the Cesium-based renderer into CosmoScout VR. ## Your profile - university studies in computer sciences or similar - experience in computer graphics with frameworks lile OpenGL, Vulkan, Direct3D, WebGPU or similar - good experience with typed programming languages, like C++, C# or Rust ## We offer DLR stands for diversity, appreciation and equality for all people. We promote independent work and the individual development of our employees both personally and professionally. To this end, we offer numerous training and development opportunities. Equal opportunities are of particular importance to us, which is why we want to increase the proportion of women in science and management in particular. Applicants with severe disabilities will be given preference if they are qualified. We look forward to getting to know you!
