Shape the future of robotic automation at JBT Marel! Are you a curious and analytical student with a passion for robotics, machine vision and automation? Join our R&D team for a graduation internship and explore how Visual Servo Control can enable robots to adapt their paths in real time. In this project, you will combine research, software and robotics to develop a proof-of-concept with potential applications in JBT Marel's robotic solutions for the food processing industry. What will you do? Our robots currently operate mainly on predefined trajectories. Your challenge is to investigate whether Visual Servo Control (VSC) can make these trajectories more flexible by continuously adapting robot motion based on live camera feedback. Analyze the current robot control approach and identify opportunities for real-time path adaptation. Research and compare VSC approaches, such as Position-Based Visual Servoing (PBVS) and Image-Based Visual Servoing (IBVS). Identify a suitable industrial use case and define requirements with colleagues from Innovation, Software Engineering and Product Management. Develop and test a proof-of-concept for real-time robot path correction. Evaluate accuracy, latency, cycle-time impact, tracking stability and robustness. Translate your findings into a technical feasibility assessment and recommendations for future applications. Who are we looking for? We are looking for a motivated HBO or university student in Robotics, Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Systems & Control or a comparable technical field. You have an interest in robotics, machine vision, automation and/or robot control. You are able to be in our office in Lichtenvoorde, at least 3 days a week Good command of English and Dutch preferred. You enjoy combining theoretical research with practical experimentation. You have an analytical mindset and are comfortable working independently. You communicate clearly and enjoy working in a multidisciplinary team. You are curious, pragmatic and eager to turn ideas into a working solution. What do we offer? A challenging graduation internship in a dynamic, international organization. The opportunity to work on an innovative topic at the intersection of robotics, vision and real-time control. A combination of research, prototype development and hands-on experimentation. Close collaboration with multidisciplinary colleagues and the opportunity to contribute to future robotic solutions.
