 +== HiWi-Position: Testing and Extension of Automated Experiment Environments for Robot Plans==
 +
 +When dealing with real-world robot tasks, simulation that is close to reality is key to test behavior-driven, smart robot plans before they are deployed on an actual physical system. In this HiWi job, I am looking for a competent student (preferably with prior experience in ROS) that performs, tests, and extends a simulated experiment world featuring a PR2 robot that autonomously performs tasks.
 +
 +Requirements:
 +  * Experience in ROS
 +  * Passion for Robotics
 +  * Ideally programming skills in Lisp, Prolog, and Java

 Computer vision is an important part of autonomous robots. For robots the image sensors are the main source of information of the surrounding world. Each camera is different, even if they are from the same production line. For computer vision, especially for robots manipulating their environment, it is important that the parameters for the cameras in use are well known. The calibration of a camera is a time consuming task, and the result depends highly on the chosen setup and the accuracy of the operator. Computer vision is an important part of autonomous robots.
