Applied Physics Internship | Structured illumination depth …, Nijmegen

At NTS, we make it possible together. Technology inspires and drives us; it is our passion. Every day we work on unique solutions for complex challenges. Whether it's ultra-complex or ultra-precise solutions, we take pride in what we do and what we deliver. Are you studying (Applied) Physics and are you looking for a company where you get the freedom and right guidance? Then choose an internship/graduation assignment at

NTS Optel in Nijmegen

and let's make it possible together.

Assignment: Structured illumination depth sensor Depth sensing can be achieved by combining an imaging system (camera) with an off‑axis structured illuminator. Using parallax (triangulation) the depth information can be retrieved. Different illumination structures can be used such as a phase‑stepping sine profile or a binary successive‑approximation profile. Maximum flexibility is achieved with a programmable pattern. This can be achieved using a DLP or LCOS device.

Note that a structured illuminator can also be used in a microscope to achieve sectioning and/or super‑resolution.

The assignment is to design and, if time permits, build and test a structured illumination projector.

The assignment consists of the following components:

Literature study

Market scan of commercial available devices (DLP, LCOS,…)

Comparing the merits of different solutions

Design a setup for the most promising solution

Select components needed

If time permits:

Build a test setup in the lab

Experimentally verify the performance

Required skillset for the student:

Master/Bachelor student (Applied) Physics (university level)

Affinity with optics

Compensation At NTS, we combine our passion for technology with innovative solutions to complex challenges. You will have the freedom and confidence to fully utilize and develop your talents in a dynamic and energetic environment.
