PhD student in Embedded Systems
Vor 3 Tagen
The Sensing, Interaction & Perception Lab is looking for a PhD student in embedded systems. Suitable applicants have built their own embedded systems before (custom PCB + firmware, MCU + sensor integration, ideally using nRF chips) and have some experience with UWB (communication protocol, distance estimation). Optional bonus: basic feedback control/robotics (Kalman filters, state estimation).
Project backgroundThe project focuses on developing cutting-edge embedded systems that integrate UWB and motion sensors for high-accuracy ranging, tracking, and communication. You will work on custom PCBs, firmware development, and the seamless connection of MCUs with various sensors. You will also develop learning-based pipelines for state, position, and motion estimation.
The project will contribute to advancements in localization and robotics applications.
Responsibilities- Design, develop, and test embedded systems hardware (PCBs) and firmware.
- Integrate MCUs with sensors, ensuring reliable communication and data handling.
- Develop UWB-based communication and ranging algorithms.
- Contribute to system-level performance optimization and experimental validation.
- Implement basic feedback control for robotics tasks.
Your background should be in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or Robotics.
Candidates should also have:
- Proven experience designing custom PCBs and developing firmware.
- Familiarity with MCUs (e.g., nRF chips) and sensor integration.
- Hands-on experience with UWB technology (platforms, protocols, signals).
- Strong problem-solving and technical debugging skills.
- Optional: experience in state estimation and filters.
- A PDF showing your projects that are most relevant to this position
- Your CV
- University score records (for undergrad and master's)
- Contact details of at least two academic referees
