Summer Internships at Bell Labs

==========================

 

We are offering exciting internship opportunities in our multi-robot systems research program. In this program, we are building a scalable and programmable multi-robot orchestration system. This system is a cornerstone of two major commercial PoC deployments of robotic solutions for factories and warehouses.

 

If you like challenges, and want to join us in building the future of robotic systems by conducting ground-breaking research with substantial industrial impact, please contact Itai Segall at itai.segall@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx . Please send us your CV along with a brief  description of your research interests.

 

Potential topics for internship projects include:

*      Construction of runtime environments for control of robotic systems

*      Theoretical aspects of robotic systems, e.g. path planning and relevant optimization problems

*      Applications of Machine Learning techniques to robotic systems

*      Test design and execution for robotic systems

*      Programming languages for multi-robot systems

*      Synthesis and formal analysis of orchestration programs

 

Specific areas of expertise include, but are not limited to:

*      Robotic control, localization and path planning

*      Task Planning

*      Distributed systems design and implementation

*      Machine Learning

*      Software Engineering

*      Program Verification, Synthesis, and Testing

 

The internship positions are open for candidates with expertise in one or more of the above topics, and who:

*      Are pursuing a graduate degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related fields

*      Have a strong academic record

*      Have excellent communication skills

*      Are interested in cross-disciplinary collaboration

 

You can find out more about our robotics research from our recent publications:

*      ICRA 2021    The Resh Programming Language for Multirobot Orchestration   https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.13921

*      IROS 2021    Daß: Distributable and Scalable Simulation of Robotic Applications
