Postdoctoral Research Associate in Robot Navigation and Mapping

The University of Lincoln is seeking to appoint a new Postdoctoral Research Associate to join the Lincoln Centre for Autonomous Systems (L-CAS). The successful candidate will be employed as part of our Horizon 2020 projects, involving several internationally well-known academic institutes and industrial partners across several European countries. The projects involve fleets of mobile robots that operate in real-world application domains with a high demand on flexibility, including applications of navigational technologies in dynamic environments such as vineyards and warehouses. L-CAS contributions to the projects include ensuring long-term operation of autonomous mobile robots, maintaining their environment representations (maps) over time to ensure reliable and task-appropriate robot navigation, and contributing to the integration of advanced robotic systems.
