Internship openings at Nokia Research Center
Position Description
Nokia is the world leader in mobility, driving the transformation and growth of the converging Internet and communications industries. Nokia makes a wide range of mobile devices and provides people with experiences in music, navigation, video, television, imaging, games
and business mobility through these devices. Nokia also provides equipment, solutions and services for communications networks.
We are looking for interns to work with us on research projects on mobile visual technologies: computational and contextual photography and augmented reality. The latest smart phones have high-quality displays, good digital cameras for still and video images, graphics capabilities including even 3D acceleration, and fast CPUs. We want to see how these can be used to create an ultimate mobile visual experience.
With computational and contextual photography we mean studying,inventing, and implementing image processing methods, algorithms for combining several input images to one really good output image, capturing not just images but also other context around the images, and using that to better edit, share, store, and find the image data.
With augmented reality we mean real-time computer vision on mobile devices, combined with locationing technologies, and used to provide location-based information and services, even gaming that happens not just on devices but also in the real world. As part of the research process we will conduct lab and field studies to asses end-user needs, validate our concepts and evaluate prototypes.
Requirements
We are looking for graduate students in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Human-Computer Interaction, or some related field. We expect you to be a competent programmer in C++ and / or Python. Experience of programming Nokia devices or on user research methods is a plus.
You should have strong mathematical and problem solving skills, proactive, and happy to work in a team. You should have skills in some of the following areas: computer graphics / vision, image processing, machine learning & statistics, sensor-based locationing, human-computer interaction & user interfaces.
