This course focuses on different recent topics in 3D computer vision and their application. A first set of (invited) lectures on specific vision problems (such as 3D shapes, point cloud processing, 6D Pose Estimation, Neural Rendering, 3D humans / matching, SLAM) lays the foundation for practical projects carried out by the student. The projects are motivated from real problems and recent research directions from industrial and academic partners. These are addressed by a group of students with support of coaches from both industry and academia. The proposed solutions to the 3D vision topics are finally presented with at an internal workshop. After the course, the student is familiar with selected topics and recent advances in 3D computer vision for which a practical project has been carried out and experience in problem solving in constant exchange with group members and vision experts has been learnt.

Students should have basic knowledge in C++ and Python programming as well as in computer vision concepts. Ideally, experience with OpenCV (or a similar library) exists and methods such as camera calibration and nonlinear optimization are known.
