Reconstruct Human-scene interaction with gaussian splatting avatars
Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of dynamic scenes, particularly those involving humans interacting with their environment, remains a challenging problem in computer vision and graphics. Traditional volumetric and mesh-based methods can struggle with occlusions, complex geometries, and real-time performance. Recent advances in neural rendering—especially Gaussian splatting—offer promising alternatives by representing scenes as clouds of oriented 3D Gaussians (“splats”) that can be rendered extremely efficiently. The goal of this project is to develop a novel pipeline that leverages Gaussian splatting to reconstruct, analyze, and interpret human–scene interactions in 3D.

End-to-End Setup of AI-Enabled Industrial Workflows
This thesis investigates how AI-enabled industrial workflows with integrated visual verification can be configured end-to-end by non-expert users. Using a digital workflow platform, the work explores how process definition, dataset creation, and model configuration impact verification reliability. Through experimental evaluation across real-world use cases—including industrial maintenance tasks such as Hilti DX76 tool cleaning—the thesis derives practical guidelines for building robust, user-friendly AI-assisted workflows.

Portable Microscope Product Development
Join Eureka to reinvent microscopes as consumer electronics products. We are seeking a motivated student to design a high-precision, low-cost sample stage and focusing mechanism for a portable digital microscope that brings professional-grade imaging to the consumer market. Your design will potentially be used by: citizen scientists who monitor the algae diversity of Swiss Lakes, nature discovery lovers who are ready for the micro-level wonders, and parents/teachers who want to give more fun to the young.
