Other responsibilities may include development and / or evaluation of image

processing and image understanding / machine learning algorithms.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

Hands-on experimental measurements / characterization of various

imaging sensors including, but not limited to 3D and color, before and

after processing, e.g. temporal noise, accuracy, FPN, image artifacts, MTF,

uniformity, color quality, various other aspects of image quality and so on.

Extensive troubleshooting of the above to improve image quality

and / or performance.

Development and implementation of experimental prototype

cameras, including software, hardware (if applicable), optics and processing.

When appropriate, research, development, implementation,

troubleshooting, evaluation of image processing, camera control algorithms

including color and depth.

When appropriate, research, development, implementation,

troubleshooting, evaluation of various visual recognition and image

understanding techniques.

In-depth evaluation of image quality and algorithm performance

including statistical analysis of results.

• Documentation and reporting of results.
• Writing invention disclosures, publications for novel imaging

techniques.
