The School of Art Design and Media (ADM) in collaboration with the Robotics Research Centre 2 (RRC2) at the School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (MAE) invites suitable applications for the position of Research Assistant for the project Anticipatory Robotics.

Project Introduction: The project titled Anticipatory Robotics aims to improve Human-Robot Interaction by developing a "Robot Body Language" wherein messages including emotions are incorporated into the movements of collaborative robots.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design, implement, and test real-time multi-objective motion planning algorithms to enable hybrid expressive-functional robot trajectories in collaborative robotic systems.
  • Conduct HRI experiments to validate the framework across coexistence, sequential collaboration, cooperation, and collaboration scenarios.
  • Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of researchers in robotics, AI, and human factors.
  • Contribute to high-quality research publications, conference presentations, and reports.
  • Support the supervision of graduate students and research assistants involved in the project.

Job Requirements:

  • PhD in Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • Strong background in robotics motion planning and control and familiarity with trajectory optimization for single- and/or dual-arm cobots.
  • Knowledge of movement primitives and multi-objective optimization.
  • Practical experience with industrial or collaborative robotic arms (e.g., UR, KUKA, ABB).
  • Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, C++, and ROS.
  • Experience working on interdisciplinary projects involving both technical and human-centered aspects of robotics.
  • Demonstrated ability to carry out independent research, as evidenced by publications in reputable journals or conferences.
