A team of researchers from Mechanical and Materials Engineering and Electrical and Computer Engineering is looking to immediately fill a paid undergraduate research position during the summer of 2023. This is a great opportunity to get exposure to academic research and discover your passion for research and continue on to graduate studies. A short description of our research is included below interested, please send an email to Dr. Markvicka (eric.markvicka@unl.edu) with your resume and transcript. I look forward to hearing from you!
Research Description: The research goals for the summer are to get a WidowX 200 Robotic Arm up and running with the Robot Operating System (ROS). The robotic arm will be used in combination with computer vision and novel AI algorithms to guide a remote user through a set of tasks. Previous experience with ROS is preferred but not required.
