This master thesis will be performed at the department for tactical environment simulation and visualization within flight simulators.
The flight simulators for Gripen are used for development, concept studies and advanced training. They are an important piece in the Gripen weapon system.
The flight simulators are used both internally at Saab for development of Gripen, but it is also used by our customers for training on flight missions.
Virtual Reality (VR) has become very big in these last years and the technology used is being more and more advanced. We think that VR can be used a complement within flight simulators to supply our users with a simulation setup that with a small measures yields a big perception of the simulated environment. We have performed several master theses within flying in VR regarding evaluations of different headsets, HMI solutions, eye tracking etc. But there is still much to research in the area.
One such area is the extension of the real world into the virtual one using Mixed Reality (MR). This thesis aims to explore the possibility with this technology in a cockpit scenario. One will use a real simulator cockpit in combination with a virtual environment. This will be done with a VR headset fitted with cameras in the front, enabling the possibilities to blend the two environments using a chroma key.
Expected result is a technical report in English, a software prototype in Unreal Engine, a simulator cockpit with chroma key functionality, tests performed with a control group and a demonstration for a reference group within Saab.
Your profile
We are looking for an engineering student that is in the last year of a technical education aimed at 3D development. We would very much like to see a genuine interest for visualization and/or game development. Experience with Unreal is highly merited.
You are more than welcome to attach your own projects in the application.
Observe that you can send us your application in either Swedish or English.

What you will be a part of
The department Tactical Environment Simulation and Visualisation delivers software to be used within flight simulators at Saab. Both for test purposes in-house, but also to our customers in Sweden and abroad.
There is a mix of both senior and junior programmers, all willing to share ideas and let each other learn and grow.
Each day we gather around for both breakfast break as well as "fika" in the afternoon. If one wants, one can join the weekly Friday "fika" as well.If you aspire to help create and innovate whilst developing yourself in a challenging team setting, Saab may well have the perfect conditions for you to grow.
