Internship in Motion Generation for Agricultural Robotics (f/m/x)

Turning today’s research into tomorrow’s applications – together. At ZEISS, we focus on user-centric innovation to transform ideas into cutting-edge solutions. At the ZEISS Innovation Hub@KIT, we foster collaboration between students, researchers, entrepreneurs, and ZEISS employees to drive technological advancements.

You don’t just want to learn robotics in lectures – you want to see it working on real robots in real greenhouses? In our newly established Ag. Tech team, you will work on mobile robots operating in high-end greenhouses and help us rethink agriculture through intelligent automation. This internship gives you the opportunity to join a strategic initiative at ZEISS that aims to revolutionize labor automation in agriculture using cutting-edge robotic systems.

Your Role

Implement and evaluate state-of-the-art motion planning and control approaches for highly unstructured environments Develop, refactor and maintain motion generation pipelines building blocks in a large robotics codebase Test approaches on real hardware in greenhouses Your Profile Pursuing a Master’s degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Data Science or related field Good foundation in robotics, kinematics, dynamics, motion planning, control theory, optimization, or machine learning Good coding skills with C++ and Python Hands-on experience with tools like ROS 2, Pinocchio, Drake, Move.

It, Tesseract, ros2_control or Le. Robot is a plus High motivation and openness to learn new skills Ability to work well in an interdisciplinary, international team Excellent command of English; German skills are an asset but not required Sounds exciting?
