Postdoc in Context-Aware Audio for Smart Glasses - DTU Health Tech

Job description

We offer a 3-year postdoctoral position within the EU-funded research and innovation project WeHear aimed at creating future hearing solutions for smart glasses. In WeHear , you will join an international multidisciplinary team of leading researchers across Europe working in computer vision, egocentric video, spatial audio technology, audio-visual sensing, and hearing research. The WeHear project aims to create the foundations for next-generation context-aware hearing technologies that use egocentric video to identify relevant communication partners and generate socially intelligent audio renderings of the user’s acoustic environment. The goal is to create new hearing assistive technology that helps hearing-impaired people communicate in complex real-world acoustic environments by combining audio-visual sensing, computer vision, spatial audio, and real-time signal processing. As a postdoctoral researcher in WeHear , you will work closely with the local project team on multi-person communication experiments with real-time decoding and closed-loop acoustic feedback. We will develop AI models that decode first-person video to inform audio beamforming strategies and spatial reconstruct...
