Internship: Python interface for C++ image processing tools

Barco designs technology that makes everyday life a little better. Seeing beyond the image, we develop sight, sound, and sharing solutions to help you work together, share insights, and wow audiences. Our focus is on three core markets: Enterprise (from meeting and control rooms to corporate spaces), Healthcare (from the radiology department to the operating room), and Entertainment (from movie theaters to live events and attractions). Our solutions make a visible impact, allowing people to enjoy compelling entertainment experiences; to foster knowledge sharing and smart decision-making in organizations and to help hospitals provide their patients with the best possible healthcare. Headquartered in Kortrijk (Belgium), Barco realized sales of 804 million euro in 2021 and has a global team of 3,000+ employees, whose passion for technology is captured in +500 granted patents.

Background of Barco Healthcare

Barco develops high-precision medical display systems to bring enhanced visualization and diagnosis across the healthcare enterprise, including radiology, mammography, surgery, pathology, clinical review imaging and dentistry. Barco's full line of color and grayscale diagnostic displays, display controllers and softcopy Quality Assurance (QA) tools facilitate confident diagnoses while guaranteeing perfect image quality over time and across displays. Next to this Barco is also an important player in the Digital Operating Room market with the Barco NEXXIS platform, a unique image management solution that builds on the IP network to ensure complete integration of all devices in and beyond the operating room.

Goal & Description of the project

As a continuation of the virtual business project submitted this year, Barco proposes to participate in the development of powerful research tools by combining software libraries containing the latest technical advances of the healthcare division with the potential offered by artificial intelligence.

For this purpose, the use of SWIG (http://www.swig.org/) seems to be the most appropriate.

As an intern, you will be responsible for creating software interfaces between existing tools, but you will also be required to enrich them by developing specific use cases, by implementing and finally by validating them to complete the development cycle.

These use cases may relate to different areas ranging from abstract areas such as color management to more concrete cases of interpretation of medical content and will be jointly defined between the trainee and the research team.

Required Skills
