Assist in characterize and calibrate camera/optical system performance (PSF, MTF, distortion, FOV) using custom or COTS test benches
Implement closed-loop and coordinated multi-axis motion control schemes, including coarse/fine position architectures
Develop motion planning routines (scan patterns, trajectory generation) to support test cell or hardware in the loop (HITL) demonstrations
Support system-level test architectures, including HIL setups simulating long-range or dynamic scenarios
Document test procedures, calibration results, and system performance for engineering review
Collaborate with senior engineers across optics, controls, and software disciplines to mature system designs
