Research Fellow in Communications for Pipeline Inspection Robots

Are you an enthusiastic and skilled researcher in communications methods? Are you on the lookout for a brand new and thrilling problem as a part of a world class robotics staff? Do you wish to design and create robotic methods that can change our lives?

As a part of the £7.2M Pipebots undertaking to construct swarms of small inspection robots to stay inside pipes, you’ll mannequin, design, fabricate and check communications and sensor methods for small robots (centimetre scale) used for inspection duties inside energetic pipes.  

You’ll be part of a world class staff on the College of Leeds growing a broad vary of inspection robots together with drones, cellular inspection robots, and among the most superior legged robots on this planet. The Leeds staff is liable for many inventions together with exploring the Nice Pyramid of Giza with robots in 2011 and repairing roads with drones.  

Our analysis is supported by the EPSRC Nationwide Facility for Revolutionary Robotic Programs, which comprises among the most superior manufacturing tools on this planet. You’ll be part of a buoyant energetic analysis surroundings alongside six researchers and technicians devoted to this undertaking alone. Throughout the broader area of infrastructure inspection, the College of Leeds leads the EPSRC Grand Problem in robotic infrastructure inspection and restore – with one other 6 tutorial researchers.  Robotics at Leeds has over 100 energetic members with analysis within the areas of Area Robotics, Medical Robotics, AI for robotics and Underpinning Science and Expertise.

We’re open to discussing versatile working preparations.
