Micro/nano robotics, Post-doctoral position opening, Paris France
A post-doc post is available at the Institut des Systèmes Intelligents et Robotique (ISIR), see http://www.isir.fr, of the Université Pierre et Marie Curie - Paris 6. The project in the area of micro/nano robotics. It involves the use of haptic feedback and virtual reality techniques for micro and nano manipulation in a project is funded by the Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR). The aim is to investigate how micro and nano scales physics can be made accessible to the human scale. There are three sub-projects on which the prospective post-doc may work on according to her/his interests and qualifications.
- Perception of micro/nano scale phenomena through virtual and augmented reality;
- Design of a novel high fidelity haptic interface specific to micro/nano scales, including mechanics and control;
- Bilateral control schemes for force feedback teleoperation through a VR/AR environment.
The candidate should have a Ph.D. in electrical or mechanical engineering, automatic control, applied physics, experimental psychology, human factors, or other relevant topics. Some experience with virtual reality systems would be a plus.
The position is available immediately. It is for one year and is renewable for a second.
Interested candidates should send a CV, selected publications and the names and addresses of three references
