In the context of a large-scale European nanotechnology project, IGN is seeking a software engineer specialized in Inertial Measurement Unit's data processing to contribute to the design of a real-time geolocalization system based on image processing (smart glasses).
Mission:
As part of a team of researchers and engineers in IGN's MATIS and LOEMI laboratories, you will participate to the building of a 3D pose estimation tool relying mainly on video streams processing and inertial sensors.
Your work will be focused on the inertial part. This tool will then be ported on a wearable embedded system developed by our partner CEA, but may also be used on UAV for 3D scanning tasks involving photogrammetry.
The mission contains four folds:
You will develop a high rate 3D trajectory reconstruction software based on gyroscopes and accelerometers.
The sensors planned to be used being targeted for consumer applications, their precision worth their (low) price. Hence, you will develop several filtering and calibration tools to cope with the quality of these sensors and limit the drift that tends to accumulate over time.
You will develop a data fusion system to combine the trajectory computed from the inertial data with the pose estimation retrieved by an image processing. The knowledge of the uncertainties of both sensors and processing methods should allow the fusion, but will also have to be recomputed and propagated over time.
You will develop an IMU calibration system based on information provided by image analysis.
The whole software being ported on a custom-designed System-on-Chip (SoC), a hardware acceleration of some of the functions may be possible via an FPGA chip.
Required skills:
Classical mechanics
Signal processing
3D pose estimation
Kalman filter, particle filter, complementary filter
Very good knowledge of C++
Ability to read/write/talk fluently in English.
Bonus:
Agile methods
Knowledge of the ROS framework (Robotic Operating System).
VHDL/FPGA
Work location:
The research department of the French mapping agency (IGN) hosts four laboratories. Two of them, the MATIS and the LOEMI are specialized in computer vision, photogrammetry, image analysis, 3D modeling and remote sensing for the MATIS, and optical and electronic sensors for observations and measurement for the LOEMI. Those two laboratories are composed of more than 50 researchers and engineers whose publications are recognized in their fields.
IGN is a public institute located in Saint Mandé, France (immediate border with Paris), accessible in metro or RER. The location allows quick access to the Bois de Vincennes, hosts a corporate restaurant and propose several services included a large sports offer. Professional training and courses during the contract are available through our engineering school l'École Nationale Des Sciences Géographiques.
Project Context
This position takes place within the scope of a large-scale European Project: Things2Do (call KET-ENIAC 2013-2, 120M€). The project involves 45 academic and industrial partners from the nanotechnology field. IGN's laboratories contribute to the development of a wearable lightweight pedestrian navigation aid, in collaboration with Commissariat à l'Energie Atomique (CEA).
During four years, a fifteen people team of researchers and engineers will study and design a smart camera based on FDSOI architecture and computer vision techniques embedded on this architecture. A key goal is to allow a very precise pose estimate based on image and IMU rather than GPS signals.
Required qualification
High level education in software or electrical engineering (master of science or PhD)
Type/Contract duration | Location |
CDD for 24 months. We are hiring, ASAP. | IGN, Saint-Mandé (Paris, métro Line 1, RER Vincennes). |
How to apply?
Before the 15/12/2015, please send an email to the contact address, with one pdf file containing:
a detailed resume with description of achieved projects.
A cover letter.
3 contact names for recommendation.

Position: Software Engineer, possibility to obtain PhD degree
Location: Fraunhofer IPA, Stuttgart, Germany
Experience: Strong skills in software design and C/C++ development and rich experience in ROS development
Finding solutions to organizational and technological challenges, particularly within the production environment of industrial enterprises. That, in a nutshell, is the key focus of the research and development work carried out at the Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Engineering and Automation IPA. With 14 individual departments engaged in the fields of Corporate Organization, Automation and Surface Engineering, our R&D projects aim to enhance production processes and make products more cost-effective and environmentally friendly by identifying and exploiting the potential for automation and streamlining at clients' companies.
The Fraunhofer IPA department for robot and assistive systems develops service robots for various application fields (e.g. domestic, inspection, logistics, production assistance, manufacturing, etc.) with the goal of reliable, robust and safe service of these robots in everyday environments. These applications require complex software systems including navigation, planning, perception and manipulation for dynamic and changing environments and intuitive human-robot interaction.
The position covers the development of concepts and tools to reduce integration effort and simplify application development for these complex robotic systems in the frame of public funded national and EU projects. The transfer of the results to industry by organizing workshops, publishing articles relevant magazines and exhibiting demonstrators at fairs and conferences is part of the job description as well.
You have completed your master or diploma degree with excellent results and are interested in interdisciplinary research with high-tech robots like Care-O-bot or KUKA iiwa. You could already gather experience in scientific working and optimally already presented your first results at an international conference. You are confident in software architectures and software engineering and have practical experiences with the development of robot applications in ROS.
We offer you a highly interesting and diverse work environment with both contact to top robotics researchers and industry. In addition to obtaining a phd degree, the position encompasses early transfer of project and staff responsibility. For the implementation and validation of your ideas, we offer exceptionally equipped laboritories and test environments.
