Research Fellow in Communications for Pipeline Inspection Robots

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

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

You’ll be part of a world class workforce on the College of Leeds creating a broad vary of inspection robots together with drones, cell inspection robots, and among the most superior legged robots on the earth. The Leeds workforce is answerable 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 Techniques, which incorporates among the most superior manufacturing tools on the earth. You’ll be part of a buoyant lively analysis setting alongside six researchers and technicians devoted to this mission 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 educational researchers.  Robotics at Leeds has over 100 lively members with analysis within the areas of Discipline Robotics, Medical Robotics, AI for robotics and Underpinning Science and Know-how.

We’re open to discussing versatile working preparations.
