Sr. Imaging Research Scientist
NLP PEOPLE, Pasadena, California, United States, 91122
The qualified individual will be responsible for development,implementation, troubleshooting and, primarily, evaluation andcharacterization of experimental prototype cameras for CMOS imagersincluding but not limited to color imaging and range/depth imaging,associated software, hardware, optics and image processing. Specifically,there is an emphasis on hands-on lab work conducting thorough experimentalmeasurements, bring-up, troubleshooting and evaluating camera prototypes.Other responsibilities may include development and/or evaluation of imageprocessing and image understanding/machine learning algorithms.
JOB RESPONSIBILITIES
Hands-on experimental measurements/characterization of variousimaging sensors including, but not limited to 3D and color, before andafter 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 qualityand/or performance.
Development and implementation of experimental prototypecameras, including software, hardware (if applicable), optics and processing.
When appropriate, research, development, implementation,troubleshooting, evaluation of image processing, camera control algorithmsincluding color and depth.
When appropriate, research, development, implementation,troubleshooting, evaluation of various visual recognition and imageunderstanding techniques.
In-depth evaluation of image quality and algorithm performanceincluding statistical analysis of results.
Documentation and reporting of results.
Writing invention disclosures, publications for novel imagingtechniques.
Company:Samsung Semiconductor Inc
Qualifications:
