Computer Vision Engineer – Advanced Camera Calibration

About the job

• Qualcomm is an American multinational corporation known for their creation of semiconductors, software, and services related to wireless technology. We belong to the Automotive branch who delivers the Snapdragon Digital Chassis. One of these platforms is the Snapdragon Ride Platform – Advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and automated driving (AD) platforms built around low-power, high-performance System on a Chip (SoC) platforms, flexible vision solutions and an SDK for simulation and continuous learning. The Snapdragon Ride Platform and SDK are supporting automakers to build cars that are connected to networks, the cloud, other cars, pedestrians, traffic, and infrastructure systems. The Snapdragon Ride Platform is at the forefront of the intelligent and connected automotive transformation, gaining momentum with global automakers and Tier 1 suppliers worldwide. Collaborations include OEMs like BMW and Cadillac — luxury automotive companies poised to lead the intelligently connected automotive revolution.
• In Sweden we consist of around 520 colleagues situated in Linköping, Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Lund. In Linköping, our Vision software is developed in cross-functional teams based on agile principles.
• We are Vision Perception
• Our Perception Strategy is to develop new solutions for the next generation Advanced Driver Assist Systems (ADAS) and Autonomous Driving (AD) on a global market, and to be the leader in Perception and Drive Policy Software.
• At our technical center based in Linköping, we offer a workplace where you contribute to the development of cutting-edge technology that aims to enhance road safety through collaborative driving and to facilitate autonomous driving for several customers world-wide.
• With us you get inspiring and sharp colleagues who like what we do and have fun at work. You get the chance to work with something meaningful and at the same time develop yourself.
• We are now in an expansive phase and are looking for Computer Vision Engineers with expertise within camera calibration who can strengthen our organization for ongoing and upcoming collaborative driving projects.
• What you'll do?
• You will be part of our development of camera-based safety systems, accelerating the growth in Autonomous Driving. Camera calibration is an important topic within Computer Vision, and the functional performance of our ADAS and AD applications are highly dependent on accurate calibration at all times as it translates observations made in the images into real world coordinates.
• You will develop state-of-the-art calibration algorithms and frameworks to identify the geometric characteristics of the image creation process for both development and product platforms. Calibration is a vital step to perform in our Computer Vision applications in terms of:
• Ensuring accurate positioning of all camera functions that output data in real world coordinates
• Ensuring accurate ground truth for precise annotation of data used for development and validation, including reference sensor cross-calibration
• Determining lens properties and exact 6D mounting position for each individual camera at production
• Enabling fusion with data from Lidar, Radar and other onboard sensors
• Ensuring consistency in a multicamera set-up where many cameras together cover a 360° surround view around the vehicle.
• Providing online (dynamic calibration) and offline tools for calibration, including monitoring and validation of calibration status
• The team is responsible for developing calibration routines and assists in using calibration rigs to set up vehicles in our test fleet. The team also develops its own and the organization's expertise within the domain via the Calibration Community of Practice, for example providing training in using calibration rigs.
• You will be working together with specialists in a variety of technical domains to deliver our most central system functions for ADAS and AD such as Vehicle, Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection, Lane and Road Boundary Detection, Static Object Detection, Traffic Sign and Traffic Light Detection.
