WoRV Team is Hiring!

Job Introduction - Visual SLAM Researcher

As a Visual SLAM Researcher, you will focus on developing Localization technologies that utilize camera sensor data to determine a robot's position in industrial environments.

WoRV (World Model for Robotics and Vehicle Control) team is creating a general-purpose Foundation Model that integrates text, images, videos, and actions to solve robotics and autonomous driving challenges.

WoRV team is advancing and commercializing the SketchDrive project.

The goal of SketchDrive is to develop a navigation agent that:

1. Drives like humans, using a single model to navigate various environments by reading maps, following language instructions, and interpreting visual inputs.
2. Understands human intent like humans, interpreting contextual cues from instructions to navigate accordingly.
