Leveraging Sony’s world-leading sensor technology, Pentas Vision is exploring the integration of AI and advanced sensing in the field of embodied robotics. We are looking for a motivated AI Research Intern to support ongoing research projects in simulation and real-world robotics, helping us validate new sensors and algorithms in embodied AI tasks.
This position is ideal for students who are passionate about robotics, multimodal perception, and simulation, and who want to gain hands-on experience in cutting-edge embodied intelligence research.
What you will be doing:
Research Exploration: Contribute to research on embodied AI algorithms, focusing on how multimodal sensing (vision, tactile, IMU, event-based, etc.) can enhance robotic intelligence.
Sensor-Algorithm Integration: Collaborate with the team to incorporate sensor signals into learning frameworks, studying their effect on control, manipulation, and perception.
Simulation Studies: Design and conduct experiments in simulation platforms (e.g., MuJoCo, Isaac Sim, PyBullet) to evaluate and benchmark embodied AI approaches.
What you should have:
Currently pursuing or recently completed a Master’s or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical/Mechanical Engineering, or a related field, with focus on AI, robotics, or embodied intelligence.
Solid understanding of deep learning architectures, with exposure to reinforcement learning, imitation learning, or embodied intelligence.
Hands-on experience in integrating sensors or working with robotic hardware / ROS pipelines (e.g., data synchronization, calibration, basic debug of hardware–software stack).
Preferred Skills
Publications in relevant conferences (e.g., ICRA, IROS, CoRL, RSS, CVPR/ICCV) or strong research project record in embodied AI / robotics.
