Physical Engineering

Work description

The objective of this work is the development of optofluidic solutions fabricated by femtosecond laser direct writing. Integrated optofluidic devices are used for the characterization of cells and other suspended particles and/or for optical trapping.

The fabrication process involves the creation of optical components, such as waveguides and lenses, as well as three-dimensional micromachining through erosion in aqueous solutions (FLICE – Femtosecond Laser Induced Chemical Etching).

Academic Qualifications

PhD in Physics, Engineering Physics or similar.

Minimum profile required

Postdoctoral experience, or a scientific track record following the PhD, compatible with the category of the scientific research career corresponding to the remuneration level defined below. Minimum knowledge of optics and programming is essential.

Work description

The objectives of this work plan are essentially focused on designing collaborative robotics systems, centered on the human operator, capable of assisting them in performing multiple complex tasks, with the ability to evolve and adapt to new objects/products over time. To this end, the objectives are:

Study computer vision solutions applicable to industrial robots. Explore artificial intelligence tools, including Deep Learning and Generative AI. Implement and test the different selected methods, with a view to their application. Design modular software that allows a robotic manipulator to perform tasks such as handling, inspection, and/or (dis)assembly of products, enabling the robot to generalize its behavior to new products. Develop quick configuration interfaces so that non-specialized operators can
