PhD Perception

Hiring specifications

Job Purpose: You will be responsible for developing and implementing perception algorithms for autonomous robots. The role revolves around enabling the robot to perceive and understand its environment accurately and reliably, thereby enabling it to navigate autonomously and interact effectively with its surroundings.

Role Expectations:

• Design and implement perception systems for autonomous robots, including computer vision algorithms, machine learning models, and sensor fusion techniques
• Develop software for real-time processing of sensor data, including cameras, LIDAR, and other sensors
• Collaborate with other engineers to integrate perception systems into larger robotic systems
• Conduct experiments to evaluate and improve the performance of perception systems
• Stay up to date with the latest research in perception and robotics, and apply new techniques to improve system performance

Interactions:

Internal Stakeholders: HODs, Research Engineers, Project Manager, technical lead in MR DR department

External Stakeholders: Customers/Clients
