Internship in Motion Generation for Agricultural Robotics (f/m/x)
ZEISS Group
Description
Turning today’s research into tomorrow’s applications – together.
At ZEISS, we focus on user-centric innovation to transform ideas into cutting-edge solutions. At the ZEISS Innovation Hub@KIT, we foster collaboration between students, researchers, entrepreneurs, and ZEISS employees to drive technological advancements.
You don’t just want to learn robotics in lectures – you want to see it working on real robots in real greenhouses? In our newly established AgTech team, you will work on mobile robots operating in high-end greenhouses and help us rethink agriculture through intelligent automation. This internship gives you the opportunity to join a strategic initiative at ZEISS that aims to revolutionize labor automation in agriculture using cutting-edge robotic systems.
Your Role
- Implement and evaluate state-of-the-art motion planning and control approaches for highly unstructured environments
- Develop, refactor and maintain motion generation pipelines building blocks in a large robotics codebase
- Test approaches on real hardware in greenhouses
Your Profile
- Pursuing a Master’s degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Data Science or related field
- Good foundation in robotics, kinematics, dynamics, motion planning, control theory, optimization, or machine learning
- Good coding skills with C++ and Python
- Hands-on experience with tools like ROS 2, Pinocchio, Drake, MoveIt, Tesseract, ros2_control or LeRobot is a plus
- High motivation and openness to learn new skills
- Ability to work well in an interdisciplinary, international team
- Excellent command of English; German skills are an asset but not required
