  • Use fiducial markers and multi-view geometry (stereometry) for reconstructing the environment

  • Test different 3D reconstruction techniques

  • Perform camera calibration for accurate pose estimation

  • Investigate the performances of various computer vision algorithms for obstacle detection from classical (edge detection, distortion correction, feature detection) to modern approaches (deep learning)


What You'll Get:

  • πŸ•’ Flexible working hours

  • πŸ’‘ An opportunity to make a tangible impact in an early-stage startup

  • πŸš€ Implementation of your best ideas in real-life applications

  • 🏒 Office space in an innovation hub alongside other exciting startups

  • πŸ€– Hands-on experience with a real-life mobile robot for testing and experimentation

  • Work remotely, but sometimes work with the robot will be necessary

  • Work with a variety of sensors


What We're Looking For:

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

  • πŸ“š Knowledge of linear algebra and geometric transformation

  • πŸ“š Understanding of statistics and probability theory is a plus, but not required

  • πŸ› οΈ Proactive problem-solving attitude

  • πŸ› οΈ An eye for details and aesthetics

  • πŸ’» Proficiency in C/C++ and/or Python

  • πŸ’» Feeling comfortable working in a Linux environment

  • πŸ’» Familiarity with Git

  • πŸ€– Experience with ROS2

  • πŸ€– Understanding of computer vision techniques (SIFT, Sobel filter, Canny detector, neural networks)

  • πŸ€– Familiarity with 3D vision is a plus, but not a requirement

  • πŸ—£ Fluent in English


Our Interview Process:

  1. πŸ“ Introduction Stage - Submit your CV and Cover letter

  2. βš™οΈ [60m] Technical Interview - A conversation with Antonios Karageorgiou and Grigor Spalj to delve into your experience

  3. 🀝 [15m] Meeting with CEO Tijmen Spiertz


Working at ROICO:

Our culture is built on these principles:

  • Dream Big: Ideate beyond established patterns for impactful change in construction.

  • Plan Pragmatic: Recognize that positive change is a step-by-step process. Innovation is achieved through executing fast in small steps

Working at
ROICO Solutions ApS

At ROICO Solutions we are developing a collaborative painting robot working alongside painters boosting productivity, reducing physical strain, and addressing labour shortage on the construction site. We focus on ease-of-use with a plug-and-play design for increased mobility and flexibility. We experienced ourselves how challenging and physically demanding it was to paint. This made us curious to figure out what construction painters are faced with. - Painters have the lowest margins in construction - 86% of painting companies experience an increasing skilled labour shortage - 33% of all EU painters will retire within a decade, while labour shortage increases We aim to solve these issues with a collaborative, semiautonomous robotic painting solution for construction painters. Our solution: - Paints walls and ceilings up to 3.5 meters high using an extendable pillar; - Navigates autonomously along walls through a mobile base; - Object detection to recognize areas that should not be painted (e.g. windows or sockets); - Uses sensors to detect any obstacles or people to avoid collisions; - Mobile application allows manual control or semi-autonomous mode - Software and sensors gather data (e.g. wall type, objects on the wall and ceiling, paint consumption, activity timer, and data associated with navigation and mapping)
