About the Role
Develop event-based VIO and motion-estimation approaches for high-speed aerial robotics. Explore asynchronous optical flow, event-IMU fusion and direct velocity estimation. Develop continuous-time estimation approaches suitable for high-rate asynchronous sensing. Evaluate event-based methods for GNSS-denied and high-dynamic flight. Build and validate hybrid frame + event + IMU estimators. Investigate velocity-space estimation for terminal high-dynamic operation. Characterize failure modes including scale drift, low texture, sensor mismatch and high angular rates. Port promising research onto embedded compute and evaluate real latency and resource requirements. Work directly with the core state-estimation team to transition validated approaches into the main stack. The offboarding work specifically highlights event+IMU fusion, direct velocity estimation and event-based high-speed state estimation, alongside concrete concerns around scale drift and embedded compute limits.
