Luleå University of Technology is seeking a a Postdoctoral Researcher in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence (RAI) (https://www.fieldrobotics.eu/) based at Department of Computer Science, Electrical and Space Engineering as part of the national research program WASP.
Position description
You will be part of the Robotics and Artificial Intelligence research group. More information Robotics and AI – Luleå University of Technology (https://www.ltu.se/robotics). You will have the opportunity to collaborate with the strong multi-disciplinary and international professional network between researchers and industry associated with the WASP.
Robotics and artificial intelligence aim to develop novel robotic systems that are characterized by advanced autonomy for improving the ability of robots to interact with the surrounding environment and humans during the execution of specific tasks.
The vision of RAI is aiming in closing the gap from theory to real life, while the team has a strong expertise in field robotics. The RAI team conducts fundamental and principled research in all aspects of robotics with a strong European and National participation in multiple R&D&I projects. RAI has participated in the DARPA SUB-T challenge with the CoSTAR Team lead by NASA/JPL (https://costar.jpl.nasa.gov/).
Research topics for this Postdoctoral researcher position will focus on one or more of following key areas, where proof of previous work with experimentally verified results is necessary:
– Distributed task and motion planning
– Multi-agent navigation in constrained environments
– Predictive collaboration with heterogeneous teaming
– Perception-aware predictive motion planning
– Distributed and cooperative control
– Body aware motion planning and whole-body control
