This scholarship is now closed
Though enthusiastic individuals are welcome to make contact about it.
We have a first-stages project about giving people extra senses using new technologies. We will use depth cameras, such as time-of-flight cameras, to provide 3D data that will be delivered as a soundscape.

This will appeal to those interested in:
-
Artificial intelligence and machine learning.
-
Psychology & cybernetics.

Assistive technologies.
-
Spatial audio and signal processing.
To apply, email your CV along with a short message summarising your relevant interests and experience, to djduff@itu.edu.tr.
