Fulltime – 40

WHAT WILL YOU BE DOING?

You will start by developing reference implementations of video compression tools. For this, you will work closely with the TNO researchers who are experts in video coding and are actively participating in the definitions of standards developed by organizations such as MPEG, IETF and ISO. You are expected to evaluate your implementation, and suggest and test ways to improve it, which will give you the chance of actually contributing to an video coding standard.

The scope and the complexity of the work will be fitted to what we think is best, depending on if you aim for an internship (minimum 2 months) or a final project such as a Master Thesis (minimum 6 months). You will perform your research work at the TNO premises and in particular you can make use of TNO's media-lab, the place where we develop new video coding techniques.

WHAT DO WE REQUIRE OF YOU?

You should:

  • be currently enrolled in an Engineering BSc/MSc program;
  • have a strong background in telecommunications engineering or a similar engineering discipline;
  • have some knowledge on information theory and testing theory;
  • have strong knowledge in video streaming (eg. DASH) and of video coding standards (particularly HEVC) is a great benefit;
  • have good programming skills (C/C++ are essential);
  • be very practical and inventive;
  • be autonomous and independent;
  • be able to think out of the box and be creative.
