Project Overview

This internship is part of the Perception Semantics team, focused on advancing on-robot AI systems that enable machines to understand and interact with the physical AI world. You’ll work on cutting-edge problems in vision-language-action (VLA) modeling, world modeling, spatial reasoning, and mapping, contributing to both research and real-world deployment.

Projects are open-ended and research-driven, giving you the opportunity to explore new ideas, develop novel approaches, and evaluate them in realistic settings. This role is ideal for Ph.D. students interested in pushing the boundaries of computer vision and embodied AI while seeing their work translate into real-world impact.
