Software Engineering

Student & Talent Programs

Ingolstadt, Mönsheim/Stuttgart, Munich

At CARIAD, it's our mission to transform automotive mobility for everyone, everywhere, making it safer, more sustainable, and more comfortable in every way.

To deliver on that promise, we're building a unified technology and software platform, including a vehicle OS and cloud platform, as well as a unified architecture.

As a 100% subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group, we're developing solutions for all of its brands, including Volkswagen, Audi, and Porsche, and will bring our software to over 40 million vehicles by 2030.

Is this an easy task? Not at all To tackle such a huge challenge, we need a great team. And that's where you come in.

You'll join more than 5,000 CARIDIANS already working on the latest vehicle features and functions like automated driving, state-of-the-art charging technology, as well as a new digital ecosystem.

Together, we're bringing sustainable change to one of the largest companies in the world.

YOUR TEAM:

We offer you an exciting opportunity for your Bachelor Thesis in the ART Road & Tire Condition in the Chassis department.

For different customer functions the knowledge of the upcoming road profile can help to increase ride comfort, to provide new customer features or to improve efficiency.

This information gathered by the vehicle fleet is aggregated in a digital map in the backend and can be provided to the customer vehicle as a predictive digital horizon.

The focus of the present thesis is to develop an algorithm to evaluate the road profile in vehicles using the basic sensor set, which is present in all VW group vehicles.

In the field of science there are different approaches to estimate the road profile and obstacles using different sets of chassis accelerations sensors.

The question raises how the varying data from different sensor sets might be merged.

WHAT YOU WILL DO:

Research question: How can Reduced/Basic Sensor Sets be used to estimate the road profile?
Literature research
Detection of road profile with different sensor sets
Characteristic values for the road state/profile
Implementation of different approaches for the calculation of the road profile or characteristic values from different sensor sets (Python/Matlab)
Evaluation:
Collection of vehicle measurements
Elaboration of the influence of longitudinal acceleration
Comparison of the different selected values
Documentation and presentation of the results

WHO YOU ARE:

Enrolled student in the field of Mechatronics, Cybernetics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or comparable
Knowledge and interest in the field of vehicle dynamics
Basic Programming skills in Python, Matlab or other languages desirable
Interest in learning new skills
Knowledge of automotive engineering is a plus
Teamminded, growth mindset, goaloriented, and communicative
