Student Assistant: Experiments with ROS

vor 7 Monaten


Stuttgart, Deutschland Universität Stuttgart Vollzeit

Student Assistant (m/f/d) Experiments with ROS

We have been working on an experimental industrial environment for robotic experiments. This needs to first be modeled for simulation and then replicated on real robots. The robotic system will be deployed with the Robotic Operating System (ROS), relying mainly on the MoveIt ROS package for tasks such as environment mapping, robot navigation, obstacle avoidance, and robotic arm movements. Given a complex mission, the robot must accomplish it with adequate performance and energy efficiency.

We offer:

Participation in current topics in autonomous robots 

Flexible working hours

Participation in ISW internal events

Opportunity to work with real robots


Focus of Research:

Deploying and configuring the ROS packages

Set up simulated environments and real robots

Run experiments and assist in interpreting, plotting, and presenting the results

Your Profile:

Currently pursuing advanced studies at the University of Stuttgart

Programming experience in Python and/or C++

Comfortable in using a version control systems like Git for collaborative development

Motivated and proactive

Previous experience with basic robots, with simple sensors and actuators

Knowledge of basic electronics is an advantage

The University of Stuttgart would like to increase the proportion of women in the academic field and is therefore particularly interested in applications from women.

Severely disabled persons are given priority in the case of equal suitability.
