Job/Position Description-
Applications from Indian nationals are invited for Project Appointments under the following project. The appointment shall be on a contractual basis with consolidated pay, renewable yearly or upto the duration of the project, whichever is earlier.
Brief description: This project involves the design and development of an exosuit, a soft wearable robotic device, for upper limb augmentation. The work is interdisciplinary and brings together researchers from various disciplines including control, brain-machine interface, biomechanics, materials, machine learning and human physiology. Your role is to design and develop learning-based control systems and musculoskeletal model simulations involving the modules from the above-mentioned disciplines for soft wearable robots.
Why you would like to join: 1. You will have an opportunity to interact with an interdisciplinary team of scientists with a background in mechanics, robotics, and controls. 2. This is a cutting-edge project in the field of soft robotics, and you will be working on design, modelling and development of smart material based novel soft actuators.
