Job Summary
In this role, you develop innovative approaches for autonomous driving, focusing on trajectory and maneuver planning, and test these in real traffic scenarios and on test fields.
Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- At the DLR Institute of Transportation Systems, we conduct research into technologies for the intermodal connected and automated transport of the future on road and rail.
- To achieve this, we are working in interdisciplinary teams with a total of 250 scientists on the development of innovative operating concepts and methods.
- Our goal is to ensure climate-neutral and sustainable mobility in cities and regions.
- Digitalization and automation aimed at achieving low-emission transport define our institute's research activities in the field of road traffic.
- The connectivity of vehicles with infrastructure opens up new opportunities for traffic optimization and provides novel technological solutions for controlling automated vehicles and infrastructure systems.
- Furthermore, it seamlessly integrates all road users into the overall transport ecosystem.
- Innovative operational concepts for passenger and freight fleets will make the management of traffic networks more sustainable and efficient.
- Through the "Testfeld Niedersachsen" (Lower Saxony Test Field) and the "Anwendungsplattform Intelligente Mobilität" (AIM - Application Platform for Intelligent Mobility), we possess a technology platform spanning highways, urban streets, and rural roads unique on an international scale for testing highly automated and connected vehicles.
- Our automated, cooperative research vehicles - along with ADORe®, the open-source automation software we initiated - enable the testing of novel approaches both on dedicated test grounds and in real-world traffic environments.
- Your Mission: Drive the advancement of autonomous driving!
- You will develop and test innovative cooperative approaches for autonomous vehicles leveraging your expertise in decision-making, maneuver and trajectory planning, and vehicle control.
- In doing so, you will apply your profound knowledge of C++ and Artificial Intelligence directly within exciting research projects (at both national and European levels).
- Furthermore, you will have the opportunity to help shape new research projects and to guide them through to completion, should they receive funding.
