Edge AI & Computer Vision Intern

We are investigating real-time edge computing architectures to enhance visual feedback in next-generation medical robotics. Our systems combine high-bandwidth video streams with real-time robotic telemetry to support precision tasks.

In this internship, you will lead the hands-on prototyping of an edge AI processing unit using a state-of-the-art Edge AI development platform. You will be responsible for bringing up the hardware from scratch, establishing a low-latency video pass-through pipeline, and evaluating how computer vision and machine learning models can extract insights and render helpful visual cues in real time.

Tasks:

• Hardware Bring-Up: Set up, configure, and benchmark a new edge AI development platform (operating system, drivers, hardware acceleration libraries, and high-speed video capture interfaces).

• Low-Latency Video Pipeline: Explore and prototype low-latency video streaming architectures using real-time processing frameworks to capture high-resolution camera feeds and drive responsive external displays.

• Telemetry & Visual Overlays: Ingest robotic telemetry alongside the video feed to render dynamic graphical annotations and spatial guidance cues directly onto the live stream.

• Computer Vision & AI Prototyping: Benchmark lightweight computer vision algorithms and modern neural network architectures (e.g., for object tracking, state awareness, or semantic scene understanding) on edge hardware.

• System Profiling & Documentation: Measure end-to-end processing delays, evaluate hardware resource utilization, and document the architecture to guide future product development.

Requirements

Required abilities:

• Enrolled in a Master’s degree or final year of a Bachelor’s program in Computer Science, Robotics, Embedded Systems, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline.

• Practical programming experience in Python or C++.

• Working knowledge of Linux environments, shell scripting, and version control (Git).

• Foundational understanding of computer vision or machine learning using standard libraries (such as OpenCV, PyTorch, or ONNX Runtime).

• An exploratory, hands-on mindset with an interest in hardware bring-up, lab prototyping, and embedded development.

• Open-minded, self-driven & creative problem solving

• Fluency in English is a must

Beneficial Experience:

• Familiarity with real-time streaming SDKs (e.g., NVIDIA Holoscan, DeepStream, or GStreamer) or GPU acceleration tools (CUDA, TensorRT).

• Basic understanding of sensor fusion or 2D/3D coordinate transformations.

Benefits

What we offer:

• A dynamic, innovative environment with cutting-edge medical technology that is shaping the future of robotic surgery.

• Fast-growing Company where innovation meets agility.

• Structured onboarding program and training, ensuring a confident start.

• High degree of autonomy and flexibility.
