We are seeking a motivated PhD candidate interested in working as part of the MUSMET - Musical Metaverse made in Europe project (www.musmet.e= u) at the University of Trento, contributing to the development of XR systems for musical interaction within a large-scale European consortium, from industry to academia. =F0=9D=97=A5=F0=9D=97=B2=F0=9D=98=80=F0=9D=97=B2=F0=9D=97=AE=F0=9D=97=BF=F0= =9D=97=B0=F0=9D=97=B5 =F0=9D=97=B3=F0=9D=97=BC=F0=9D=97=B0=F0=9D=98=82=F0= =9D=98=80 The candidate will work on the design and implementation of Mixed Reality platforms supporting real-time multi-user musical interaction, with particular relevance to Mixed Reality scenarios where musicians perform with real instruments and audiences engage simultaneously across physical and virtual spaces. A key area of exploration will be the use of generative AI for 3D content to enable dynamic environment and avatar generation within networked immersive platforms. =F0=9D=97=96=F0=9D=97=AE=F0=9D=97=BB=F0=9D=97=B1=F0=9D=97=B6=F0=9D=97=B1=F0= =9D=97=AE=F0=9D=98=81=F0=9D=97=B2 =F0=9D=97=A3=F0=9D=97=BF=F0=9D=97=BC=F0= =9D=97=B3=F0=9D=97=B6=F0=9D=97=B9=F0=9D=97=B2 Successful candidates will have hands-on experience in building VR, MR, or AR applications (with at least one demonstrable project in game engines such as Unity) and a strong passion for the field. A master's degree in computer science or related fields is required. Interest in computer vision, and/or generative AI for 3D content is highly valued. Interest in music and music technology is a plus but not a requirement. =F0=9D=97=A3=F0=9D=97=B9=F0=9D=97=AE=F0=9D=97=B0=F0=9D=97=B2 =F0=9D=97=BC= =F0=9D=97=B3 =F0=9D=98=84=F0=9D=97=BC=F0=9D=97=BF=F0=9D=97=B8, =F0=9D=98=80= =F0=9D=98=81=F0=9D=97=AE=F0=9D=97=BF=F0=9D=98=81=F0=9D=97=B6=F0=9D=97=BB=F0= =9D=97=B4 =F0=9D=97=B1=F0=9D=97=AE=F0=9D=98=81=F0=9D=97=B2 =F0=9D=97=AE=F0= =9D=97=BB=F0=9D=97=B1 =F0=9D=98=80=F0=9D=97=AE=F0=9D=97=B9=F0=9D=97=AE=F0= =9D=97=BF=F0=9D=98=86 The place of work is the Department of Information Engineering and Computer Science of University of Trento, Italy.
