Computer Vision Intern (Data and Optimisation)
Location: Bangalore (ARTgarage)
Role: Intern
About us
idle Robotics is a Bengaluru-based startup with the ambitious mission to become the intelligence layer powering all autonomous systems. We believe the future of AI is physical, and the first step is giving machines the ability to perceive the world. We are building a foundational layer of visual intelligence that is, in effect, the "visual cortex" for robots, allowing them to perceive, navigate, and act intelligently. Our dual-use approach means you will contribute to high-impact work, from GPS-denied navigation for defence drones to scalable software for global industrial automation. If you are passionate about robotics, computer vision and pushing the boundaries of Physical AI, we invite you to build the core technology with us.
Role Summary
This track emphasises the deployment-ready side of perception, ensuring pipelines are optimised for high-performance edge compute platforms.
Responsibilities
Construct classical vision pipelines utilising feature extraction and image processing methods.
Execute the data lifecycle, including cleaning and annotation via Label Studio or CVAT.
Contribute to the optimisation of vision models for deployment on embedded systems.
Support geometric CV tasks, including camera calibration and spatial perception.
Minimum Qualifications
Strong Python skills, including NumPy, SciPy, and OpenCV libraries
Hands-on proficiency with dataset management and creation workflows
Familiarity with ONNX Runtime or TensorRT is a significant plus
Why Build With Us?
Collaborate directly with IIT/IISc founders in a high-density engineering environment.
Solve complex "zero-to-one" problems in Physical AI and autonomous systems.
Develop dual-use technology for national defence (GPS-denied navigation) and industrial automation.
Access competitive compensation, paid time off, and a growth-focused culture.
