Analog Devices (ADI) is building the foundation for next‑generation robotic dexterity by tightly integrating tactile sensing, vision, low‑latency control, and AI‑driven data strategies. This internship offers a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of multimodal sensing, machine learning, and robotic manipulation, with direct impact on ADI's long‑term dexterity platform and product roadmap. The intern will work closely with ADI's tactile sensing, computer vision, and AI teams, contributing to the development of data strategies and learning pipelines that fuse tactile and visual information to enable robust, fast, and precise manipulation. This role is particularly well‑suited for a PhD student in robotics, electrical engineering, computer science, or a related field, with research interests in multimodal perception, learning‑based control, or dexterous manipulation. Key Responsibilities Develop and evaluate data strategies for multimodal dexterity, combining tactile, vision, and optionally proprioceptive or force/torque data. Design representations and learning pipelines that enable tactile-vision fusion for tasks such as grasping, manipulation, insertion, and slip detection. Analyze large‑scale tactile and vision datasets collected from robotic platforms and benchmarks, identifying key features, failure modes, and performance bottlenecks. Collaborate with tactile hardware teams to understand sensor characteristics, noise sources, latency constraints, and spatial/temporal resolution trade‑offs. Work with AI and robotics teams to prototype learning‑based models, including supervised, self‑supervised, or reinforcement learning approaches. Contribute to experimental design and benchmarking, evaluating how different sensing modalities and fusion strategies impact task success. Document findings clearly and communicate results through technical presentations and internal reports, helping shape ADI's dexterity data roadmap. Desired Qualifications Currently pursuing a PhD in Robotics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field. Strong background in robotic perception, machine learning, or multimodal sensing. Hands‑on experience with at least one of the following: Tactile sensing or force/torque sensing Computer vision for robotics Learning‑based manipulation or control Proficiency in Python, with experience using ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX) and common robotics or vision libraries. Experience working with real‑world sensor data and an understanding of latency, synchronization, and noise in physical systems. Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively across interdisciplinary teams. Nice to Have Prior research on tactile sensing, multimodal fusion, or dexterous manipulation. Experience with robotic platforms, simulation environments, or benchmarking frameworks. Publications in leading robotics, ML, or sensing venues. Familiarity with real‑time systems or edge‑AI constraints. What You'll Gain Hands‑on experience shaping ADI's dexterity and tactile data strategy, with direct relevance to future products and platforms. Exposure to state‑of‑the‑art tactile sensor technologies and real industrial robotics challenges. Close collaboration with experts across tactile hardware, vision, AI, and system architecture. Opportunity to influence long‑term research directions and build strong industry-academia connections.
