About the job:
Research and develop haptic feedback technologies that enable physically grounded interactions in embodied AI systems.
Design and conduct experiments to evaluate the effectiveness of haptic feedback for human-robot interaction, VR/AR, and other embodied applications.
Analyze and interpret data from experiments and use the results to improve tactile perception and control in physical or simulated agents.
Collaborate with other researchers, engineers, and designers to integrate haptic capabilities into robotic, virtual, and mixed-reality systems.
Stay up-to-date with the latest research and developments in embodied AI and haptic feedback technologies.
Publish research papers and patents to advance the field of haptic feedback and embodied interaction.
About the ideal candidate:
PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field.
Strong background in signal processing, control systems, and tactile sensing for embodied agents.
Demonstrated experience in haptic feedback research applied to robotics, virtual/augmented reality, gaming, or healthcare, with a focus on physical interaction and embodied intelligence.
Experience conducting and incorporating user studies to evaluate tactile interactions in physical or simulated environments.
Experience modelling and controlling electromechanical systems, including Servo, Stepper, BLDC motors; FOC motor control is an asset.
Knowledge of haptic large model such as Haptic
VLM, Haptic
LLaM, Haptic Gen.Proficiency in programming languages such as C, C++, C#, MATLAB, and Python.
Strong publication record in haptic feedback, tactile perception, or embodied AI research.
