PhD Humanoid robot design

Introduction

Are you excited about contributing to the next generation of humanoid robots that can move, manipulate and interact with the world in a more human-like manner? One of the key open challenges in humanoid robotics is understanding how actuator design and topology influence overall robot performance. If this sounds fascinating, then this PhD position is made for you!

Job Description

We invite highly motivated students with a strong background in the modelling and design of dynamical systems and a keen interest in humanoid robotics to apply for this PhD position within the Robotics section at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Eindhoven University of Technology.

In biological systems, high actuator redundancy and intrinsic compliance are essential for achieving human-like interaction with their environment. Translating these principles to humanoid robots remains a major scientific and engineering challenge...
