Florida State University Work Values

Daily Duties at Florida State University:

• Served as team leader for complex coordination strategies of heterogeneous robot teams by employing economic principles. o Reconstruct 3D scenes for distributed multi-robot resource coordination using Microsoft’s Kinect. o Proposed, implemented and tested Stochastic Cluster Auctions that can trade off global optimal performance and team efficiency. o Integrated the QorIQ P4080 processor (8-core) into the physical experiments of multi-robot communication for combined control and dataplane processing, enabling 4 times improvement in computational and communication performance. o Wrote C++ codes for auction protocol and coordination strategy in GDB, GCC, and Eclipse IDE. o Accomplished physical experiments for multi-robot communication (TCP/IP) in JAUS SDK. • Developed a robotic vehicle from concept to final product, including embedded control firmware/hardware/software integration, control system design, motion control, real time data logging and sensors installation. o Programmed and configured PC104 embedded control software and hardware system, including microprocessor board, DAQ board, DC/DC board, sensors, encoder, Ethernet converter, etc. o Modeled and simulated vehicle closed-loop control system in Matlab/Simulink, including PID controller, motor drive, motor and vehicle dynamics. o Wrote firmware in C code in VxWorks for ADC, DAC, counter and timer; and wrote the main program for robot motion control, including programming low pass filter, PID controller and robot kinematics. o Programmed path planning algorithms in C code to control robot to follow trajectories to reduce time, distance or energy; and fed sensor data in VxWorks to ensure robot follow the desired trajectories. o Collected experimental data from sensors, performed root cause analysis of experimental data, debugged programs and developed new experiments. o Processed experimental data through optimization methods to determine unknown parameters; and designed low pass filters to reduce data noise. • Wrote LabVIEW code on PXI platform to retrieve pressure/position/temperature data, model positioning system in pitch/yaw, and control wind tunnel airspeed.

What they like about Florida State University:

The social vibrance of a hiring firm is very important to you. Your ability to make and maintain friendships there is a critical part of your decision. You would likely be dissatisfied with a workplace that is quiet, cold, or otherwise not particularly social. When you investigate a new hiring company, ask recruiters, managers, and potential co-workers about the social life and opportunities there. This is especially important when you are relocating; moving dramatically alters your social sphere both inside and outside the workplace.
