Role : Internship (3-6 months) - Full Time, Onsite (Bangalore)
Key Responsibilities (Research & Development) :
1. Robotics R&D & Prototyping
- Assist in the design and development of robotic systems (bipedal robots, manipulators, ornithopters, bionics).
- Build, integrate, and test robotic prototypes using mechanical, electrical, and embedded systems.
2. Mechanical Design & Fabrication
Design high-precision mechanical components in CAD (Autodesk Fusion 360).Fabricate parts using rapid prototyping tools : 3D printing (FDM / SLA) CNC machining (3-axis or 5-axis) Sheet metal forming Carbon fiber composite fabricationAssemble mechanical joints, gear trains, linkages, and motion mechanisms.3. Control Systems and Simulation
Implement and tune PID and model-based controllers for robotic actuation.Work with simulators such as Gazebo, Webots, Isaac Sim, or custom simulation environments.Perform kinematic, dynamic, and structural analysis to validate designs.4. ROS Development
Implement ROS1 / ROS2 nodes, topics, services, and actions.Integrate sensors (IMUs, encoders, force sensors, cameras) and actuators (servos, BLDCs, ESCs, linear actuators).Develop URDF / SRDF models and integrate them into simulation.5. Electronics & Embedded Integration
Assist in wiring, testing, and integrating microcontrollers, power systems, drivers, and sensors.Basic PCB prototyping is a plus.Bonus Skills (Nice to Have)
Embedded Hardware circuit design and Software programming (Arduino, STM32, ESP32, IOT Sensors)Familiarity with Python and C++ for RoboticsUnderstanding of Biomimetics or bio-inspired mechanismKey Responsibilities (EdTech / Robotics Communicator) :
Robotics Education (dedicate a small portion of time and effort mentoring some of the brightest young minds - GiftdMinds students, educating about Robotics, Mechatronics and Control Systems)Outreach and Partner Connect : Part of the Outreach team to connect with various private and Govt. UAVs and Defence related organisations in the field of RoboticsResponsible for establishing GiftdMinds as an active and leading R&D organisation in the field of advanced RoboticsAbout GiftdMinds :
