Do you want to practice and learn new skills within a vibrant environment? Do you have a curious mind and a proactive attitude? Are you brave enough to bring new ideas that make an impact? Then we are looking for you.

At ROICO we are developing a collaborative painting tool using robotic technology. We empower painters with a solution that works alongside them, allowing them to focus on high-value and value-creating tasks. This tool will help painters increase their productivity, reduce physically straining tasks, and address the labor shortage among painting companies.

We are looking for a Master Thesis or Intern to assist in bringing our collaborative mobile painting robot to life.

What will you do?

• Work with RGBD sensors for obstacle avoidance, both on walls and ground

• Perform pose estimation for the obstacles

• Train Neural Networks to detect obstacles, and their position

• Work with fiducial markers, i.e Aruco

What we offer

• Remote work (Working with the robot on-site may be necessary)

• Flexible working hours

• A real-life mobile robot to work with and evaluate your code

• An opportunity to work in an early-stage startup where your work has an impact

• Encouraging environment to share and implement your ideas

What we look for

• Relevant (ongoing) education, ideally robotics or software engineering

• Proficiency in C/C++ and/or Python and Linux programming

• Experience working with OpenCV

• Experience working with neural networks, mainly CNN

• Experience with ROS2

• Feeling comfortable working in a Linux environment

• Familiarity with Git

• An eye for details and aesthetics

• A proactive, problem-solving attitude

• Fluent in English

If you have projects you’re proud of send us a link to them, i.e github, youtube.

Please note that this is an unpaid position.

Creative applications are appreciated.
