R&D Team Lead
Your role and responsibilities
At Robotics Research & Development, we strive to provide our customers with the most technically advanced and innovative robot solutions, enhancing the speed and accuracy of our systems. Different modules in our modular controllers use a common functional safety platform based on a multi-processor system on chip (MPSoC). However, these modules have varying requirements for the type and amount of integrated dual-channel safety I/O functions. This variability necessitates a scalable solution that can accommodate different needs while maintaining a communication interface with safe protocol towards the functional safety platform. The master’s thesis aims to develop a future functional safety implementation that ensures easy reuse of base functionality and lower cost for simple safety functionality. Details: • Period: January-June 2025 or August-Dec 2025 • Number of credits: 30 ECTS • Number of students for this thesis work: 1-2 • Location: Finnslätten, Västerås on-site Objectives: 1. Investigate and analyze the current dual-channel functional safety I/O solutions used in modular controllers. 2. Develop a Functional Safety Base Solution: Create a standardized base solution that incorporates these common elements. 3. Adaptability Assessment: Evaluate how the functional safety base solution can be adjusted for different modules and controllers. Scope: 1. Literature Review: Conduct a comprehensive review of existing functional safety standards and dual-channel I/O solutions. 2. Requirement Analysis: Identify and document the varying requirements for dual-channel safety I/O functions across different modules. 3. Design Proposal: Develop a scalable design for integrating dual-channel safety I/O functions with a communication interface with safe protocol. We expect you to do the thesis work independently while you excel in engagement, curiosity, and collaboration. You will have a dedicated supervisor to guide you and numerous opportunities to influence the direction of the project as you see fit. You will embody ABB’s core values of safety and integrity, taking responsibility for your actions while caring for your colleagues and the business.
Qualifications for the role
- M.Sc. Dependable systems, Engineering Physics, Robotics, Electronics Engineering, Aviation and space or similar.
- Strong interest in Functional Safety, as well as in Electronic Hardware and Firmware.
