Project Description and Responsibilities
As part of the REISAR (Systme Robotis Avanc pour lInspection des Rseaux dAssainissement et la Prservation de lEau) project funded by France 2030 and ANR we are recruiting 5 Robotics Research Engineers (M/F).
The aim of this project is to send semiautonomous robots into sanitation environments (sewers networks to :
- Detect anomalies (deterioration of infrastructures)
- Limit water loss and pollution of watercourses.
Video presentation : themes will be addressed:
- 1. Control and Navigation (CESI SaintNazaire Campus)
- 2. Location (CESI Toulouse and Rouen campuses)
- 3. Understanding the environment (CESI Nice and SaintNazaire campuses)
5 positions on these different themes are open with the following missions:
1. Control and Navigation in a heterogeneous land/water environment and contribute to implementation on experimental sites. (SaintNazaire Campus)
Your main tasks :
- Develop sliprobust control methods adapted to a variety of environments.
- Performance evaluation of the control method.
- Support the software integration of developed technologies via a continuous integration process.
and filtering of different localization sources up to implementation on experimental site. (Toulouse and Rouen campuses)
Your main tasks :
- Implement a functional exteroceptive localization method adapted to robotic contexts in sanitation environments based on vision LiDAR and proprioceptive data (IMU).
- Build datasets to test and evaluate algorithm performance.
- Support the technological maturity and robustness of the localization brick in particular by integrating it into a continuous integration process.
3. Understanding the environment
a) Detection and classification of objects and materials using multispectral sensors (Nice Campus)
- Comparison of methods and data for identifying materials using multi/hyperspectral sensors
- Creation of multi/hyper spectral datasets and reference images:
- Evaluation of classification methods
- Developing and integrating new learning models
b) Multispectral and geometric information fusion LiDAR (SaintNazaire Campus)
- Data acquisition and processing.
- Detect the presence of objects/obstacles and identify materials.
- Setting up and validating extrinsic LiDARcamera calibration methods.
- Sensor fusion (LiDAR and cameras).
Missions common to all 5 research engineers :
- Maintain an active technology watch in your area of expertise.
- Write technical documentation and project deliverables.
- Document processes and share feedback to promote technology transfer and replicability.
- Making data available to the scientific community.
