We have 2 positions available within the POLVISION project in our PLAT research group. This project, funded by AGAUR (the Catalan Agency for Research and Universities) through the Knowledge Industry program, aims to foster an economy driven by knowledge by promoting the transfer of research results from academic institutions to the market.
Our project focuses on bringing to market a novel method for complete polarization vision (full-Stokes vision) that we have developed. This method offers unprecedented simplicity and represents a significant advancement in the field of polarization optics.
Position Details:
The two positions are for 1 year (up to ~14 months, due to the project duration). The positions available are:
- Postdoc position
- Early-career researcher (e.g., Master’s student) that ideally could serve as a starting point for a PhD.
The successful candidates will contribute to developing a fast, intuitive, and user-friendly interface for our polarized vision system. Additionally, they will actively participate in technology transfer activities related to the project and support other research initiatives within our group.
Key Qualifications (especially for the postdoc):
- Strong programming skills in LabVIEW, Python, and/or MATLAB
- A keen interest and experience in polarization optics, hands-on experimental work, and the implementation of calibration algorithms
- A strong commitment to research excellence and continuous development
Additional Information:
- Salary: Commensurate with experience and according to the guidelines in Spanish universities for postdocs and early-career researchers.
- Working Place: Physics Faculty, Universitat de Barcelona.
