NTU: A post-doctorate position in ST Eng-NTU Corp. Laboratory at Nanyang Technological University (Singapore) is immediately available.
Research topic: Precise landing of unmanned aerial vehicles on an un-defined landing target This project aims to solve the precise landing problem of a VTOL UAV by using a cost-effective hybrid method consisting of local positioning systems and global positioning systems. In this project, an un-defined landing target will be selected for the UAV to realize a precise landing. Requirements: - Prospective candidate should hold a Ph.D. degree in automatic control engineering, mechatronics engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, computer science or other related disciplines from reputable universities. - The candidate should have excellent verbal and writing skills in English with very good communication skills. - Concrete knowledge in C/C++. - Experience in controlling and navigating of multi-rotor UAVs. - Knowledge in calibration of multiple sensors and sensor fusion for UAV is a plus. - Knowledge in 3D vision, e.g. stereo vision or a monocular vision plus a laser range finder, for UAV is a plus. - Knowledge in 6D pose estimation or localization for UAV is a plus. - Knowledge in fuzzy logic control is a plus. - Knowledge in visual model-free object tracking for UAV is a plus. - Knowledge in working with Robot Operating System (ROS) is a plus. - Knowledge in developing Graphical User Interface (GUI) is a plus. The application should consist of: * A CV with a full publication list, * Transcripts of B.Sc., M.Sc. and Ph.D. * The contact details of three referees. These documents must be compiled as a single pdf file, and named as "<Name>_<Surname>.pdf". Then, the single file should be sent to "er...@ntu.edu.sg" with a subject line of "Postdoc application for PL project". The salaries are competitive, and the position will be available immediately once the candidate is selected. The applications will be reviewed directly until the position is filled. The deadline for the application is the 30th of April 2016. ________________________________ CONFIDENTIALITY: This email is intended solely for the person(s) named and may be confidential and/or privileged.
