Internship ESM project - Contamination recognition

We open up your world with every drive Would you like to work on the development of roof systems for future car models together with some of the market leaders in the automotive industry? Inalfa Roof Systems is a world leading supplier for OEM automotive roof systems and still growing strong. Are you ready to grow with us?Inalfa Roof Systems has initiated a research project focused on integrating AD/ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) related sensors into roof systems. The primary objective of this research project is to assess the feasibility of measuring diffused laser light to identify and classify contamination or wear on a secondary visor (optical panel in front of the sensor) The project named ?Exterior Sensor Module,? aims to ensure optimal sensor functionality under all specified conditions. A critical subsystem within this project is the cleaning system, designed to restore sensor signal quality in the event of external contamination on the secondary visor or window. The initial concept for the Exterior Sensor Module incorporates a long-range LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) sensor capable of detecting objects within a range up to 200 / 300 meters. Your Main Tasks and Responsibilities Are:Idea generation and selectionDesign and implementation of high-level detection algorithmProblem and data analysisRequirement setting and analysisConcept design and developmentPrototypingAnd much more.

Internship ESM project - Cleaning Control Framework

We open up your world with every drive Would you like to work on the development of roof systems for future car models together with some of the market leaders in the automotive industry? Inalfa Roof Systems is a world leading supplier for OEM automotive roof systems and still growing strong. Are you ready to grow with us?Inalfa Roof Systems has initiated a research project aimed at integrating AD/ADAS-related sensors into roof systems. Cleaning of the sensors is one of the functionalities which are needed to increase the uptime of ADAS/AD systems. This project is about the analysis of input parameters and signals to develop a model for efficient and effective cleaning of the sensors.Our project on ?Exterior Sensor Module,? has a primary technical objective: to ensure sensor functionality under all specified conditions. A critical subsystem within this project is the cleaning system, which is designed to restore sensor signal quality in the event of external contamination. As the number of sensors on vehicles continues to rise, minimizing washer liquid consumption poses a significant challenge for the future. Goal of this research project is to establish a framework, starting with a black box approach. This involves analyzing various input parameters and control signals, laying the groundwork for a future control and optimization model. keen to consider this as your internship project, see the details below :Your Main Tasks and Responsibilities Are:Idea generation and selectionDesign and implementation of high-level control algorithm.Problem and data analysisRequirement setting and analysis.Concept design and developmentPrototypingAnd much more.
