About The Company
Fraunhofer IGD is the international leading institute for applied research in visual computing. Visual computing is image- and model-based information technology and includes computer graphics and computer vision, as well as virtual and augmented reality. In simple terms, the Fraunhofer researchers in Darmstadt, Rostock, and Kiel are turning information into images and extracting information from images. In cooperation with its partners, technical solutions and market-relevant products are created. Prototypes and integrated solutions are developed in accordance with customized requirements. In doing so, Fraunhofer IGD places users at the forefront, providing them with technical solutions to facilitate computer work and make it more efficient. Owing to its numerous innovations, Fraunhofer IGD raises man-machine interaction to a new level. Man is able to work in a more result-oriented and effective way by means of the computer and visual computing developments.
About the Role

The particular strength of the Fraunhofer Institute for Electronic Nano Systems ENAS lies in the development of smart systems - so-called intelligent systems for various applications. The systems combine electronic components, micro and nano sensors and actuators with interfaces for communication. Fraunhofer ENAS develops individual components, the technologies for their production as well as system concepts and system integration technologies and transfers them into practical use. Fraunhofer ENAS accompanies customer projects from the idea to the design, technology development or implementation using existing technologies, right through to the tested prototype.

The Data-based Methods team at Fraunhofer ENAS develops real-world applications using AI, machine learning and computer vision. The main focus is on semiconductor manufacturing and medical technology. 

 

Are you passionate about cutting-edge research at the intersection of healthcare, technology and data science? Join our team in European projects  and work in an international team of experts from different disciplines such as proton therapy, computer science, applied mathematics, detector physics and medical physics.

 

We are currently looking for students for Master's theses, internships and student assistants. We can discuss our ideas together to find the right job for you.
