Work With Us!

We're thrilled to announce an opportunity to join the EXTRA EYE PRIN project. As a collaboration between University of Catania, University of Macerata, and University of Udine, this initiative aims to redefine our understanding of human interactions, especially in retail environments.


We have three fully funded 2-years research fellowship openings at each of the three partner university (Catania, Macerata, Udine). Eligibility requires a Master Degree, but a PhD in related topics is strongly recommended.


About the Project

The EXTRA EYE project aims to analyse human interactions in complex environments. We plan to combine first-person and third-person views to provide a deep understanding of human activities and behavior. EXTRA EYE will rely on three modules: a First-Person View (FPV) module which aims to understand take/release user-object interactions from egocentric vision, a Third-Person View (TPV) module which processes exocentric signals captured from fixed cameras, accompanied with an aggregation unit that also integrates information from the other components to perform context-specific behavioral analysis, and an Object Tracking (OT) module which supports the former two components by tracking objects of interest from both the third- and first-person points of view. As a clear application context for the development and test of EXTRA EYE, we will consider retail stores as goal-driven, interaction-rich scenarios.
