Are you the enthusiastic, talented graduate intern we’re looking for?
Can you transform images into accurate and repeatable 3D engineering measurements? Join the Grooming and Beauty Development team to develop the next generation of an image-based measurement system. Starting from an existing 2D measurement tool, you will investigate how stereo vision, multi-camera imaging, structured light or another suitable approach can reconstruct and quantify complex three-dimensional structures.
Your Responsibilities
As an intern, you will:
- Take ownership of the assignment, including planning, concept development, experimentation and communication of results.
- Review state-of-the-art 3D imaging and reconstruction techniques.
- Evaluate concepts for extending an existing 2D measurement tool to 3D.
- Design and build an experimental imaging setup.
- Develop camera calibration and validation procedures.
- Process image data and implement reconstruction algorithms.
- Extract quantitative geometric parameters from the reconstructed data.
- Assess spatial resolution, accuracy, measurement uncertainty and repeatability.
- Validate the measurement system against known reference geometries.
Key Deliverables
- State-of-the-art review and selection of promising 3D measurement concepts.
- System concept and architecture for a 3D measurement solution.
- Experimental setup and validated measurement methodology.
- Calibration, reconstruction and parameter-extraction algorithms.
- Quantitative assessment of accuracy, uncertainty and repeatability.
- Recommendations and roadmap towards practical implementation.
- Final report and presentation to stakeholders.
Your background
We prefer students who can start immediately and commit to at least six months, although exact dates are flexible. To succeed in this role, you should be pursuing a master’s degree in applied physics, optical engineering, imaging and vision, computer vision, measurement science, robotics, or a similar field. Additionally, you should bring:
- Fluency in English (written and verbal).
- Interest in optics, imaging, computer vision, data analysis and experimental physics.
- Experience with Python, MATLAB, OpenCV, image processing or optical measurement techniques is a plus.
- Curiosity to explore and compare alternative technical concepts.
- Structured, hands-on and result-driven approach.
