Job description
This project focuses on the design and implementation of novel control methods for aerial manipulation systems for autonomous flight control, including contact for tool manipulation. To ensure increased precision and robustness of the aerial manipulator during physical interaction tasks, enhanced modeling techniques shall be combined with full-body control methods.
The PhD project will be hosted at ASL of ETH offering all the equipment necessary to perform the sought investigation, including robots and indoor/outdoor facilities. Besides working on their project at ASL, the successful candidate will participate in network-wide training events like summer schools and retreats. Moreover, the PhD student will conduct two secondments at other network partners.
The successful candidate will receive an employment full time contract and a competitive gross salary in accordance with ETH standards. The expected start date for the position is May-September 2021.
