Job Type: Internship

Job Description

Xerox is seeking a highly motivated Imaging Scientist Intern to join our Image Based Controls design competency in Rochester, NY. The objective of this opportunity is to be part of a cross-functional team to create, develop and prepare a new design & technology ready for mass production. As an Imaging Scientist, you will provide the algorithms to analyze test patterns and customer images in real-time and will also involve improving Xerox's custom Contact Image Sensor (CIS) camera. This role offers the opportunity to deepen technology and problem-solving skills while designing, building, and testing innovative new products.

Responsibilities

  • Responsible for developing image-based controls, including missing jet determination, streak analysis, image registration measurement and correction, color enhancement, print inspection, and verification techniques, & inkjet dot placement.
  • Provide analysis and innovative ideas that will further enhance Xerox's Contact Image Sensor (CIS) with sensor controls of custom image sensing chips.
  • Develop technical solutions to complex problems that require ingenuity, creativity, and sound business judgment.
  • Translate new/existing scientific knowledge into enabling technologies; perform analytical, experimental, and modeling work to solve business problems in a timely manner.

Requirements

  • Pursuing a BS degree in Electrical Engineering or Imaging Science or related field with experience with image analysis.
  • Ability to design and test algorithms in a simulation environment using: Matlab, Python, or C++. Knowledge of OpenCV is desired but not required. Experience with GPU programming desired.
  • Knowledge of basic imaging functions like geometric (e.g. affine) transformations, simple target (e.g. crosshair) detection, 2D digital filtering (smoothing and edge enhancement), and morphological processing (e.g. erosion/dilation) is strongly recommended.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary based on experience and skillset.
  • Comprehensive suite of benefits.
  • Opportunity to work in a dynamic and innovative environment.
  • Commitment to diversity and inclusion.
