Polybee Pte Ltd – Aerial Robotics Intern

Polybee is building autonomous drone solutions for pollination in indoor greenhouse farming. We have developed a novel patent-pending method of pollination with drones called Aerodynamically Controlled Pollination. This is a bio-inspired approach; the turbulent wake of drones is optimized to vibrate the flowers at just the right frequencies, much like the bumblebees when they buzz-pollinate. With this method, we can pollinate tomatoes, pepper, eggplant and strawberries: the biggest crops in the greenhouse sector. Our core pillars of technology are automation of micro-drones, computer vision for perception and analytics, and a software platform for deployment and visualization. In this project, you will be involved in the deployment of autonomous micro-drones in greenhouses, and liaise with our computer vision and software teams.

As an aerial robotics intern at Polybee, you will find yourself in various dynamic and high-impact situations; one day you could be writing software to make a micro-drone fly itself to a flower and perform pollination, on another day you might be developing a mobile app to help our users interact with our robotic bees. We are proud to share that our interns take a lot of ownership in their work; you will be involved in the deployment of your own contributions at our customers' sites. Do expect a lot of exciting problems to solve onsite with the team!
