Details
- Title: Autonomous drone swarms
- Location: Lille (possibility of accommodation), Plovdiv (Bulgaria) or remote
- Type : full time
- Position: developer
- Duration: internship (3-6 months) / alternance / hiring
- Reference :Offer-2023-Drone-Developer
Description
We are involved in several R&D projects with swarms of autonomous drones (quadcopters, fixed-wing drones) whose navigation uses the edge computing system SlapOS (https://slapos.nexedi.com/) and an IPv6 mesh network with multicast capabilities (https://re6st.nexedi.com/). We have deployed formation flight strategies based on distributed programming and real-time communication (https://www.open62541.org). These flight strategies are first tested with a 3D swarm simulator.
We are looking for developers interested in any of the following topics:
- Capture and analysis of flight telemetry for flight strategy optimization
- Massive flight simulation and strategy optimization using artificial life
- Extending SlapOS for real-time capabilities
- Adaptation of the 3D simulator to new environments close to reality
This position requires a good knowledge of English in order to integrate in an environment of European partners.
Responsibilities
- Contribute to an open source edge computing architecture for drone swarms
- Strengthen the real-time support in SlapOS
- Strengthen the 3D simulation of swarms
- Deploy a big data system for flight strategy analysis and AI/VL
Opportunities
- Fullstack and devops development (Python, buildout)
- Front-end development (BabylonJS + vanilla JS, preferably 3D, game development)
- Contribution to complex free and open source software solutions
- Learn IPv6 multicast and OPC-UA networks
