About Us
We are part of the Australian Centre for Robotics and Sydney Institute for Robotics and Intelligent Systems at the University of Sydney. We engage in theoretical and applied research at the intersection of robotics and imaging. For more information please contact donald.dansereau@sydney.edu.au.
Postdoctoral researchers
We're especially interested to hear from experts in:- Optics and computational imaging
- Perception for robotics in fast driving, flying, and manipulation
- Learning for design, manufacture and interpretation of novel imaging technologies
- Machine learning with multi-dimensional, multi-modal content
- Active perception
- AR / VR

PhD Students
Our students push the limits of perception in robotics. Excellent candidates will qualify for full tuition, stipend, and top-up scholarships.- Machine learning for camera design and interpretation
- Novel cameras: computational imaging devices spanning single-photon sensors, nano-optics, solid-state LiDAR, femtosecond imaging, event cameras, multispectral, light field imaging...
- Vision for small and fast robots: flying, driving, fast manipulation
- Long-range imaging in participating media: underwater, fog, rain
- Active and interactive imaging and control
- Light field video processing: using 4D cameras to see where others cannot
- Autonomous driving, underwater survey, drone delivery, robotic surgery
- AR / VR
We're always open to new ideas at the intersection of imaging and robotics.
