Felix Haase

In this student job at the Institute for Computer Graphics i did a lot of C++ and OpenGL development . I usually worked with PHD students on their current projects and implemented either their ideas or competing papers where no source code was available. In addition I assisted in performing empirical studies and creating supplementary material for papers.

This was my first student job, working at the Institute for Computer Graphics in Hannover. I did mostly C++ and OpenGL development but also teaching. I implemented a demo application for the virtual reality device INCA 6D, including physics simulation and haptic feedback. The teaching part of this job consisted of holding the first-semester mathematics introduction lecture.
