The role part of our growing research portfolio on perception sensor testing, and will involve sensor modelling, sensor model interfacing, sensor data fusing, robustness testing and information extraction, working in collaboration with industry and academic partners. It will involve developing, validating and integrating perception sensor models into simulation platforms and X-i-L setups in the context of automated driving and automated transport systems (aviation and marine), by utilising existing sensor models, enabling common interfacing between sensor models and different simulation. The role will further involve developing novel approaches for virtual sensor model validation against real world sensor model, establishing the limitations of current perception sensors, and creating robust noise models.

Successful candidate will be exposed to a variety of academic and industrial partners through a number of our research projects like Horizon Europe funded SYNERGIES, CERTAIN, EVENTSi4Driving etc., and UKRI / Innovate UK / CCAV funded, UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship, DriveSafeSIM.

About You  

The successful candidate will need to have strong knowledge and significant experience in existing sensor technologies (e.g. RADAR, LiDAR, camera) and sensor model interfacing, sensor data fusing and information extraction, as well as testing techniques and robustness modelling. You will need to demonstrate understanding and experience with sensor interfacing between ROS/Autoware and other environment simulations. You will need to have experience of industrial R&D and first implementation in ‘real world’ environment with good understanding of existing sensor technologies.
