What you'll do
- Select, adapt and fine-tune deep learning models for 2D and 3D human pose estimation from cameras, that perform robustly in challenging real-world conditions
- Develop camera models and calibration routines for a range of camera and lens configurations
- Evaluation of motion capture output and developing compensatory algorithms and techniques to handle camera/vision failure modes
- Build training and evaluation pipelines from camera and optical motion capture recordings, using synthetic data where real data is insufficient
- Track the computer vision research landscape and assess whether new techniques are feasible for Xsens products
What we're looking for
- MSc/PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics or a related field, with years of relevant industry or applied research experience
- Hands-on experience training and fine-tuning deep learning models for human pose estimation, with results evaluated on public benchmarks
- Solid understanding of camera and lens models, including wide field-of-view optics, intrinsic and extrinsic calibration, and multi-view geometry
- Familiarity with the output representations of common pose models, such as keypoint sets and SMPL-family parameters
- Experience with tools in markerless eco-system such as OpenCV, Sapiens, and SAM3D
- Proficiency in Python
- Working knowledge of C++ for integrating models into an existing C++ codebase
Nice to have
- Experience with synthetic data generation and rendering pipelines
- Experience optimizing models for real-time deployment, for example with ONNX, TensorRT or quantization
- Experience building datasets and benchmarks for human motion
