We offer students a summer job in the Robotic Perception group (ROP). Students become student research assistants working on a particular research project and paid by the project. Each student will have a supervisor. The specific agreement has to be done with her or him. See the list of topics below. Contact the supervisor of the topic you like.
The usual student summer job lasts from 4 to 6 weeks. The job can be divided into several nonconsecutive periods of time. The first two weeks serve for testing. If the student does not like the job or if the supervisor is not happy with the student performance, the job can be stopped after two weeks. Students who have not studied at the university yet are offered job for two weeks initially. If both sides of the contract, the student and the supervisor like it, the job can be prolonged.
The pay is counted for 160 hours per months at the following rates (before the tax is paid by the student) in CZK per hour → CZK per month: after A-level from the secondary school 120 → 19,200; after Bc1 130 → 20,800; after Bc2 140 → 22,400; after Bc3 150 → 24,000, after Mag1 160 → 25,600, after Mag2 170 → 27,200, after Mag/Ing graduation 190 → 30,400.
The list of topics, their brief descriptions and supervisors follow. Please, contact the supervisor if interested. If you need more general information or you do not know which topic to select, call Václav Hlaváč on his mobile phone number +420 603 149 689. He will help you.
- Topic A: Semantic representation of a traffic scene and reasoning in it in a self-driving car
Supervisor: Václav Hlaváč
Description: We will work with OpenStreetMap, add objects to it and build a simple logic-based reasoning system.
Note: The team of two students is possible. - Topic B: Virtual environments for neural networks training
Supervisor: Michal Vavrečka
Description: Develop virtual environments based on Unity engine that will serve as a training examples for neural network architecture
Note: None
- Topic C: Chatbot for humanoid robot Pepper
Supervisor: Michal Vavrečka
Description:Create and test Czech dialogue trees for humanoid robot Pepper to let him conversate with the users.
Note:None - Topic D: Fast visually guided robotic ball catching
Supervisor: Ondřej Holešovský
Description:Localize a rolling ball in a high temporal resolution event camera data stream. Navigate a robotic arm to catch the localized ball.
Note: None
- Topic E: An experiment with an event camera and/or a fast global shutter camera
Supervisor: Ondřej Holešovský
Description: The specific computer vision or robotic task will be specified later.
Note: None - Topic F: Visual Object Tracking in an Industrial Assembly Task
Supervisor: Radoslav Škoviera
Description:
The task will be to research state-of-the-art tracking algorithms with existing implementations, test and tune them to work with a custom dataset. More info: http://imitrob.ciirc.cvut.cz/deep_track.html
Note: None
- Topic G: Object Detection and Localization from RGB-D Data
Supervisor: Elena Šikudová
Description: The goal will be to implement a detection and object localization pipeline based on an existing CNN-based detection algorithm. More info: http://people.ciirc.cvut.cz/skovirad/autonomous_objdet.html
Note: None - Topic H: Extension of Annotation Tool for Autonomous Driving Datasets
Supervisor: Júlia Škovierová
Description: Student will work on an existing annotation software (written in C#) to extend it’s capabilities (e.g., integrate additional data types).
Note: The - Topic I: Visual feedback for Human-Robot-Interaction
Supervisor: Jan Kristof Behrens / Karla Štěpánová
Description: When humans teach robots new tasks, it is crucial for them to know what the robot understood. The goal of this project is to compute visual representations on different abstraction levels for robotic manipulation tasks.
Note: None - Topic J: Planning of indoor mobile robot motion
Supervisor: Vladimír Smutný
Description: We have a SLAM enabled robot, we need to get planning and performing the plan.
Note: None - Topic K: Control KUKA robot motion with the HTC VIVE
Supervisor: Vladimír Smutný
Description: HTC VIVE measures the motion of the human hand, let copy the motion by the robot.
Note: None - Topic L: Two arm manipulation of the flexible object
Supervisor: Vladimír Smutný, Pavel Krsek
Description: Manipulating the flexible object by two robots is easy for highly flexible materials, more difficult for stiffer ones.
Note: None
- Topic M: Manipulator position calibration
Supervisor: Vladimír Smutný
Description: Robot is moved to the place, where it should work. Its relative position to the desk has to be estimated.
Note: None - Topic N: Edge localization for micro manipulation
Supervisor: Pavel Krsek
Description: Realization of experiments with different edge detectors and development of modified algorithm.
Note: None - Topic 0: Implementation of algorithm in Vision Builder (NI LabView)
Supervisor: Pavel Krsek
Description: Explore possibility of implementation of own algorithm in Vision Builder and implement some basic algorithm.
Note: None
Responsible: Václav Hlaváč
