Society has become heavily dependent on Position, Navigation and Time (PNT) information derived from Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). These systems provide accurate estimates of position and time, but are vulnerable to interference due to their weak signal strengths. In military contexts, this poses a significant threat to operational effectiveness. Military personnel on foot are particularly challenged in GNSS-denied environments. Fall-back navigation methods such as maps and compasses are time-consuming and error-prone. Additionally, strict SWaP (size, weight & power) constraints are critical, as soldiers carry all equipment. Light-weight software-enhanced GNSS-denied PNT solutions are therefore vital, and a point of focus for the PNT team.
We offer two master’s thesis level internship assignments:
You will perform this assignment in the PNT team, part of the Autonomous Systems & Robotics department. We are a passionate, dedicated and tightly-knit team with extensive knowledge of multi-agent systems, system architectures, software engineering, information fusion, artificial intelligence and robotics.
You are in the final stages of a Master's degree in a relevant field of study (e.g., mechanical engineering, AI, aerospace engineering).
Please include the following practical information in your cover letter:
