The Robotic Composites and Compositions (RoCoCo) Group, led by Dr. Buse Aktaş, and the Embodied Social Interaction Group, led by Dr. Philip Müller at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems (MPI-IS) in Stuttgart are seeking a motivated
Student Assistant (HiWi) f/m/div on Perception of Distributed Robotic Systems
starting as soon as possible to support an exciting project at the intersection of human-robot interaction, user experience design, psychology, cognitive science, and swarm robotics. This collaborative project combines the complementary expertise of both groups.
**About the project**:
Swarm robotics, multi-robot systems, active matter, programmable matter, and jamming-based systems all explore distributed robotic systems: robots composed of multiple bodies rather than single monolithic ones. While these systems are increasingly common in research, little is known about how people perceive them—as collectives, as individuals, or somewhere in between.
Roles & Responsibilities
The student assistant will help plan and carry out a study on people’s perceptions of such systems, including:
- Generating videos of swarm-based robotic systems with distinct motion characteristics
- Designing an online study (including survey questions) to assess perceptions of the videos
- Processing and analyzing the resulting data
If you are excited to help shape the next generation of human-centered distributed robotic systems, we encourage you to apply
Education & Experience
We are looking for Bachelor’s or Master’s students in computer science, industrial design, psychology, physics, engineering cybernetics, or related fields.
**Required skills**:
- Some experience with animation, simulation, or visualization software (e.g., Unity, Blender, Adobe Animate, After Effects, or similar tools)
- Programming skills in Python, C#, or JavaScript (e.g., for simulating simple motion patterns, running online experiments, or data processing)
- Strong interest in human-robot interaction and willingness to learn experimental design
**Recommended skills (a plus, but not required)**:
- Background in swarm robotics or other distributed systems (through coursework or projects)
- Experience with user studies (designing surveys, running online experiments, analyzing behavioral data)
- Familiarity with data analysis tools (e.g., Python libraries, R, or MATLAB)
- Exposure to UX methods, cognitive science, or psychology experiments
**Our offer**:
- An international, multidisciplinary, and highly motivating working environment
- Extensive mentoring and supervision directly from two faculty members with complementary expertise (Buse Aktaş and Philip Müller)
- Access to state-of-the-art lab facilities, including advanced fabrication and testing equipment
- Students without a bachelor degree will be paid 13.80 € per hour. Students with a bachelor degree will be paid 14.40 € per hour. Working time: up to 10 hours per week.
**Application**:
**Applications should include**:
- a CV/resume
- a transcript of records from your current and previous degree, including grades
- a cover letter (written in English, no more than one page long) In this letter, please:
- a description why you’re excited about this project
- the highlight relevant experiences that match the skills listed above
- an explain how your background and interests align with the project’s goals
- For further information about the position, please contact Dr. Buse Aktaş at
