1 Internship pprtunities

2 General Infrmatin Why is an internship valuable fr yu? In the first instance, an internship needs t be wrthwhile fr yu, the student! Everyne deserves the pprtunity t participate in an internship that is captivating and educatinal, in rder t receive a hands-n wrk experience. This will help yu btain a better insight in yur chsen field f study and the pssible career paths that cme with it. Yu will nt nly be able t gain and imprve yur skills, but yu can als interact with peple wh practice this prfessin n a daily basis. They will have the answers t many f yur questins and are able t help yu discver yur strengths and interests. Why cnsider an internship at PsiCntrl? At PsiCntrl, we believe that we can help yu and nt the ther way arund. We will help yu define yur subject, by talking abut yur interests and aligning them with ur expertise. Hence, we are able t ffer yu an internship that will suit yu, ne that yu can be passinate abut. In additin, interns are part f ur team and have tasks that clsely relate t ur nging prjects. A persnal cach will guide yu every step f the way with a view t bth realizing the internship gals and ptimizing yur experience. 2

3 What des PsiCntrl d? PsiCntrl takes care f the design, develpment and prductin f custm-made electrnics, human-machine interfaces and tuch devices. T facilitate this, we have an R&D and prttyping department in Ypres (Belgium) and prcurement, prductin and service activities at ur branches in Belgium and Rmania. Our R&D department cnsists f several teams that undertake tasks such as analg and digital electrnics design, writing embedded and applicatin sftware, prduct design, envirnmental testing and develpment f reliable prductin tests with the gal f increasing quality. Yu can find mre infrmatin abut PsiCntrl by visiting Hw can I apply fr an internship? There are tw ways t apply fr ur internships. Firstly, yu can cntact us by r telephne t set up a meeting in which yu can tell us abut yur interests. We have listed in this flder sme tpics that are related t ur activities and which yu can use as a guideline. With this infrmatin, we can prpse a suitable internship subject fr yu!

6 Testimnials Alexander Crnelissen & Jarne Wille Electrnics-ICT / Krtrijk During ur internship, we investigated several stepper mtr drivers that will be used n a Picanl weaving machine. Our cach, Niels was really supprtive and always ready t answer ur questins. We had a desk right in the middle f the PsiCntrl clleagues and were part f an nging prject. We were als invited t jin in with all f the scial activities, such as after-wrk drinks and sprts. This really helped us feel part f the team. Furthermre, we appreciated the flexible wrking hurs, and the fact we culd even extend ur internship t a summer jb! Tm Lierman Electrnics-ICT / Ghent Fr a perid f five weeks, I was part f a prject invlving the PsiCntrl Embedded Sftware team, writing a prtcl analyzer tl. There is a pleasant and friendly atmsphere in the wrkplace and everyne was ready t help ut and answer all f my questins. Fr me, it was the perfect place fr my first wrk experience! 6

7 Prpsed Subjects The fllwing sectin cntains a few examples f internships yu can undertake at PsiCntrl. If yu are interested in any them, let us knw! Is yur preferred subject nt listed here? Dn t wrry - we can still d ur very best t prvide yu with an internship that is perfect fr yu. VISUALIZATION ON EMBEDDED DEVICES: EVALUATE EMBEDDED WIFI AND BLUETOOTH CHIPSET... 9 AUTOMATIC TEST SOFTWARE MAINTENANCE AND MONITORING DEFINITION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF AN AUTOMATIC TOUCH SCREEN TESTER GENERIC AND EMC BENIGN DISPLAY DRIVER TOOL SELECTION AND INTEGRATION OF CAPACITIVE TOUCH SOLUTION IN AN INDUSTRIAL HMI PRODUCT PROPOSE YOUR OWN SUBJECT

8 VISUALIZATION ON EMBEDDED DEVICES: 4.3 Descriptin The tuch revlutin is still in prgress. While many peple are used t smartphne tuch capabilities, ld clunky interfaces (e.g. thermstats) remain widespread. The challenge is nw t bring tuch t these small cntrller interfaces. T enable this, we ften use the TuchGFX graphical library. Yur task Skills and Tls Prttype and interface n ur 4.3 tuch platfrm Investigate and demnstrate the capabilities f TuchGFX library TuchGFX C++ Embedded sftware Cntact Fr mre infrmatin, please cntact Filip Deniere: filip.deniere@psicntrl.cm r Tel

9 EVALUATE EMBEDDED WIFI AND BLUETOOTH CHIPSET Descriptin Different chipset slutins fr Wi-Fi and Bluetth LE are available n tday s market. Our SwipeStat platfrm supprts Bluetth LE with a specific chipset that is dedicated t BTLE. We nw have ur eyes set n a chipset featured with tw cres, which can handle bth BTLE and WIFI. Yur task Skills and Tls Evaluate the chipset capabilities, tls, available libraries, ease f use, Try ut features by using cde examples Cmpare BTLE functinality with ur current BTLE chipset TCP/IP Stacks Wi-Fi / Bluetth C++ Embedded sftware Cntact Fr mre infrmatin, please cntact Filip Deniere: filip.deniere@psicntrl.cm r Tel

10 AUTOMATIC TEST SOFTWARE MAINTENANCE AND MONITORING Descriptin PsiCntrl has tw prductin sites: ne is situated in Ieper, while the ther ne is in Rmania. Part f the prductin flw invlves the functinal test f the prducts n autmated test equipment. These test systems in prductin are mnitred by an Excel dcument. Hwever, this is far frm ptimal and creates a lt f verhead. Yur gal will be t cnvert the functinality f this Excel int a web-based applicatin. The Frnt-End will be a lightweight Angular Applicatin while the Back-End will be a C# based web API. Yur task Skills and Tls 00 Develp an intricate part f a Web-Based applicatin in a.net envirnment Create an easy-t-use Graphical User Interface, based n an extended visual template Visually shw the status f prductin test systems Web API.NET / C# SQL Graphical User Interface Cntact Fr mre infrmatin, please cntact Wuter Baert: wuter.baert@psicntrl.cm r Tel

11 DEFINITION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF AN AUTOMATIC TOUCH SCREEN TESTER Descriptin As we integrate a grwing amunt f displays and capacitive tuch slutins, ur prductin testing equipment needs t evlve in rder t guarantee the best pssible quality fr these prducts. It is a challenging task t cmbine a camera setup fr visin tests and capacitive tuch prbes in a cmpact and autmated testing slutin. A cmbinatin f hardware and sftware skills are required t design and implement a reusable tuch screen tester. Yur task Skills and Tls Design a psitining table fr tuch screen testing Prgram a cntrl mechanism Create an autmatic test fr ne f PsiCntrls HMI prducts using a visin testing library Electrnics Stepper mtrs Prgramming Visin testing Cntact Fr mre infrmatin, please cntact Wuter Baert: wuter.baert@psicntrl.cm r Tel

12 GENERIC AND EMC BENIGN DISPLAY DRIVER TOOL Descriptin We have in-huse electrmagnetic cmpatibility (EMC), climate and durability testing facilities at PsiCntrl. We see that displays have a significant impact n the utcme f the EMC tests f ur prducts, but there is little r n data available n hw they behave under given circumstances. The risk and lead-time f a prject decreases if we can understand and predict the display EMCbehavir. Hence, a stand-alne setup is required t test different kind f displays and each display will have its wn sftware driver. Yur task Skills and Tls Design a generic measurement-ready and EMC benign display setup Analyze results f different displays and the impact f varius filters EMC-measurements Displays Embedded sftware Cntact Fr mre infrmatin, please cntact Jnas Geldf: jnas.geldf@psicntrl.cm r Tel

13 SELECTION AND INTEGRATION OF CAPACITIVE TOUCH SOLUTION IN AN INDUSTRIAL HMI PRODUCT Descriptin Capacitive tuch technlgy is used in a lt in mdern prducts, e.g. smartphnes, media players, TV s, etc. Hwever, mdern industrial HMI cntrllers are asking fr the same lk and feel. Since industrial applicatins require a lt mre attentin with regard t immunity and envirnmental influences, PsiCntrl is lking fr the best pssible slutins t integrate this technlgy in industrial applicatins. Yur task Skills and Tls Investigate and cmpare different technlgy slutins that are currently available Experiment with different slutins and cmpare them in terms f functinality, ease f use and rbustness Integratin in a PsiCntrl HMI prduct Human-Machine Interface Capacitive Tuch EMC-measurements Analg Electrnics Cntact Fr mre infrmatin, please cntact Jnas Geldf: jnas.geldf@psicntrl.cm r Tel
