Apply to our internships

We are looking for two or three candidates for an internship, in order to complete our robocup team.

Main goal:

Enhance our robot OPL (PALbator) and SSPL (Pepper) with new features. Implemement those features in robocup scenario. Rules available here (clone and make content) or an old compiled version

Why is it great ?

You will participate to the biggest robotic competition with :

• 3 500 participants
• 5 000 robots
• 45 represented countries
• 70 000 spectators

The team earned already a good reputation :

• Best scientific paper in 2019 at RCS
• 3rd rank in 2019 at Robocup@Home SSPL
• 5th rank in 2018 at Robocup@Home SSPL
• 3rd rank in 2014 at Robocup@Work

You will compete with/against world top-level teams, work on most recent technologies, learn thousands of different things, and in the same time you will not really know if you are playing or working !

Be part of a team composed of robotics experts and researchers mainly from CITI Lab. Inria Chroma Team

Internship topic details

Internship 1 (mainly at CPE): Human-robot interface for robocup scenarios

• OPL :
  • Full hardware implementation of the tablet and the speech recogition on the robot.
• OPL and if possible SSPL :
  • Develop Speech recognition and dialog capacity
  • End the work done on the tablet (mainly javascript)
• SSPL & OPL:
  • Ensure scenarios compatibility on the two plateforms
  • Collaborate to the “Clean up” and “Receptionist” scenarios which will be your test case on the 2 robots

Internship 2 (mainly at CPE): Ojects management and application to the “Clean Up” (the floor) robocup scenario

• For OPL and SSPL : Detecting objects (deeplearning), 3D localisation for pointing and grasping, Objets taxonomy
• For OPL only : Grasping objects with motion strategies adapted to each objects
• “Clean up” scenarios : Develop and test the “Clean Up” scenario on the 2 robots. First without grasping for the 2 robots. Then with grasping for OPL

When and where ?

The internship starts in February 2020 and ends in July 2020. Depending on the topic, the student will work either in CPE Lyon or in CITI-Lab. The 20th to the 28th of June we whole team will be at the competition in Bordeaux.
