Fixed-term for 3-6 months
SICK develops innovative solutions in the field of industrial automation to meet the growing demands of customers. The central research and development department supports this by exploring new technological and algorithmic approaches, particularly for the automation of warehouse processes. Robotics and camera-based sensors are used to improve efficiency, while AI-driven systems analyze inventory, optimize routes, and prioritize order processing. These systems often rely on classical neural networks, which face challenges when dealing with unknown objects or significant environmental changes.
Foundation models offer greater flexibility and scalability as they are pre-trained on large, diverse datasets and can be applied to various tasks without needing retraining for each one.
As part of a bachelor’s or master’s thesis, the existing bin picking application based on foundation models will be improved. Possible topics include the fine-tuning of foundation models for picking tasks, deployment on edge devices, integration of multimodal data for enhanced object recognition, automatic clustering of data as a basis for fine-tuning, and the comparison of agnostic object detection models on logistics data.
