and look for the position: Postdoctoral Fellow - Computer Vision 
Scientist (CEMR393)

This position will provide support to the WVU team for conducting 
research activities in the area of computer vision for robotics. The 
incumbent will research, design and develop advanced image exploitation 
algorithms for the development of On-Orbit Satellite Servicing, set 
operational specifications and analyze the development of space 
qualified multisensory data acquisition, apply statistical pattern 
recognition and machine learning tools to develop new computer vision 
techniques for the real-time processing of data (including video) that 
will demonstrate on-line and off-line robotic operations.

The WVU-NASA Robotics Center is collaborating with the space agency's 
Goddard facility to develop software and tools, such as robotic hands 
that will service existing NASA satellites. The Robotics center houses 
university faculty, researchers, students and professionals. The space 
agency began working with WVU researchers 10 years ago, when they helped 
develop more lightweight and affordable structures to carry high-tech 
equipment into space. The facility is expected to grow by getting people 
from other institutions and industries to work on projects that are 
vital to future space missions.
