Dear Students!
We are looking for exceptionally talented and motivated undergraduate
students eager to join a research project combining mobile robotics,
computer vision and machine learning. We are running an exciting
project involving a mobile robot DUB-E operating continuously in the
CSE building. The robot performs tasks requested by the users using a
mobile website (e.g. “DUB-E, check if Andrzej is in his office”). The
robot navigates and gathers data within the entire CSE building using
elevators as means of transportation. Our research focuses on several
aspects of the system including large-scale environment understanding,
human-robot interaction, and life-long learning for robots.
Students with following experiences are desirable. However, students
who are really enthusiastic about robotic research, have a portfolio
of fun hobby projects and are fast learners are also very much
welcome.
* Good programming skills in C++, Python, JavaScript
* Robotic sensors and actuators, electrical engineering
* Linux operating system and networking
* Machine learning, AI and data analysis
* Computer vision and image processing
* User interface design
* Web development and mobile app development
* Game development
The project offers interesting opportunities to work with the real
robots, learn more about AI and apply what you’ve learned to real
world problems. You will work in a great team of professors (Prof D.
Fox, R. Rao and M. Cakmak), researchers (Dr. A. Pronobis) and graduate
students (Michael Jae-Yoon Chung) as well as fellow undergraduate
students already involved in our project.
We would be excited to have you in our team! Please contact us
(pronobis@cs.washington.edu, or mjyc@cs.washington.edu) if you want to
participate. Tell us about your interests and previous projects and
attach your transcript of records from UW.
Logistics:
We offer CSE499, CSE498A or CSE498B credits. To understand more about
