ETH Zürich
Research Engineer in Generative AI for 3D Shape Design in Human Body Modelling
80%-100%, Zurich, fixed-term
Are you a highly motivated and enthusiastic researcher looking to make a difference in the field of AI applied in Healthcare? Join us at the Spinal Cord Injury Artificial Intelligence - SCAI Lab at ETH Zurich.
Our team of clinical and research scientists is dedicated to improving healthcare systems using physiological and clinical information analysis for a closed-loop decision support systems in rehabilitation in many health conditions.
This position is open for a postdoctoral researcher in the field of generative design for exoskeletons and orthosis. Focused on developing a novel method for autonomous design of 3D shapes fitting to the user body and optimizing the design to the desired assistance.
Dr Diego Paez-Granados in collaboration with Prof. Robert Riener (SMS Lab) will supervise the successful engineer.
The position is fully funded for 2 years.
Ideal starting date: July 2024 (or shortly thereafter).
Project background
The goal of this project is to leverage advanced machine learning to develop an automated design process of mechanical walking aids, analyse gait patterns and make biomechanical simulations embedded in the generative mechanism design process. As a team member, you will experience a range of exciting challenges, including the development of innovative technologies for patient usage, and developing standardization methods for customizing aids.
You will be based at ETH Zurich and collaborate with the team at the Swiss Paraplegic Center (SPZ) in Nottwil and an industrial in our shared project.
Job description
The goal of this project is to leverage advanced 3D shape construction through generative design for the structural improvement of walking aids with the support of novel expert knowledge included in the design and fabrication.
If you are a highly motivated and creative individual with a passion for innovation, we want to hear from you.
Join us and help shape the future of 3D design and additive manufacturing for mechanical and mechatronic aids.
