Number: MER0003Z73 The automotive industry is facing a new era of intelligent vehicle interiors that not only recognize the presence and body language of the occupants, but also intuitively respond to their needs. At Mercedes-Benz, we pursue the vision of such an intelligent interior that offers a seamless and safe driving experience through the activation of suitable infotainment, comfort and safety functions. The first elements of this vision can already be experienced in our vehicles: from the second sleep detection to contactless gesture control and profile selection by facial recognition to the representation of three-dimensional contents in the combination and augmented reality head-up display. These functions are based on precise estimates of body and face characteristics and provide a solid basis for further research and development in the field of interior design. With a focus on innovation, performance, design and economy, we are driving our projects forward. Thanks to our internal matrix organization, experts from hardware development, testing, functional and software development combine to achieve visionary goals together. For this we develop AI-based software as well as sensor hardware and control units. Last but not least, we define customer functions and thus shape the user experience of our future vehicle generations. We are looking for dedicated work students who want to support our development team. Your specific tasks are tailored to personal skills and interests. Crossing beginners are also welcome! As an agile and highly motivated team, we design the automotive future and look forward to passionate students who want to experience this adventure together with us. Be part of our vision!
