Post-doctoral fellowship in Visual Optics in Hong Kong (HK) - Hong Kong Polytechnic University

Post-doctoral fellowship in Visual Optics (Appointment period: 36 months, with possibility of further appointment)

Description: The School of Optometry (Home | School of Optometry (polyu.edu.hk)) from The Hong Kong Polytechnic University is an internationally recognized research center for its high-impact research on refractive anomalies and age-related ocular diseases. The School invites applications for a 3-year post-doctoral fellowship to develop novel visual systems with a special focus on adaptive eyeglasses for low-vision patients, presbyopes, and myopia control. The project involves an international team of experts in the field of optics, visual science and electronic including the School of Optometry and the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering Home | Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (polyu.edu.hk) at Hong Kong Polytechnic University, the Applied Optics group Applied Optics - University of Galway (nuigalway.ie) at the University of Galway and the MIPA laboratory Laboratoire MIPA – Mathématiques, Informatique, Physique et Applications (unimes.fr) at the University of Nimes.

The appointee will be required to:
(a) Design and build the optomechanical structure of adaptive eyeglasses system using Zemax and Solidworks;
(b) Develop a miniature wavefront sensing system to be integrated into the eyeglass;
(c) Develop an eye-tracking system to be integrated into the eyeglass;
(d) Develop an adaptive control system for real-time adjustment of the ocular accommodative demand.
(e) Test the system performance
