Introduction
At Atomionics, we build quantum gravimeters that are set to revolutionize the resource exploration industry. We are looking for a motivated intern to contribute in simulating a moving-base quantum gravimeter.
Responsibilities
- Develop and improve software implementation of a simulation model for the output of a quantum gravimeter undergoing 6 axis motion.
- Determine forces and accelerations experienced by the quantum gravimeter and compare them to those measured by an IMU. Modelling forces and rigid body dynamics: Forces in Inertial and Non inertial coordinate frames, Modelling accelerations due to Rotation and lever arms, and Kinematics in 3D space
- Data Processing and Analysis of Signal Characteristics: FFTs, PSDs, Allan deviations (drift analysis) Finding optimal filters and Error propagation
- Support the integration of transfer functions into motion libraries to build sensor fusion algorithms.
- Analyse differences between the simulation and the experimental data in a set of conditions.
Qualifications
- Engineer or physicist with a background in computer science, sensor fusion, signal processing, or related fields
- Experienced with modelling of classical mechanics: inertial and non-intertial reference frames, rotating reference frames, Centrifugal and Coriolis accelerations, lever arms
- Familiarity with Python: NumPy, SciPy, pandas, visualization packages
- Skilled in Root Cause Analysis
- Interested in deep technical problem statements and capable of picking things up
Preferable if you have:
- Familiarity with sensor fusion fundamentals: Euler angles, quaternions, integration, dead reckoning
- Familiarity with foundation of signal analysis such as FFTs, noise analysis
- Experienced with motion and localization packages such as Gazebo
- Familiarity with modelling in Matlab and simulations
- Experience with interfacing an IMU and collecting experimental data
- Familiarity with IMU characteristics: sampling rate, noise, bias drift, etc.
What we can offer you
- A comprehensive immersion into the intricacies of deep tech research, encompassing product development and strategic aspects within a high-growth startup environment
- A book allowance to help you grow and collectively build the Atomionics library
- Board games and curry night
Minimum duration of 3 months, preferably 6 months.
