Research Scientist Intern, Eye Tracking 3D Reconstruction and Rendering (PhD)
Meta

Meta Reality Labs is looking for exceptional interns to help create the next generation of eye tracking for virtual and augmented reality. Our research focuses on true solutions to complex tracking problems, delivering novel technologies and algorithms fundamental to future VR and AR systems. You'll have the unique opportunity to work with industry-leading researchers and engineers who are defining the future of AR/VR.We are seeking candidates with a background in 3D reconstruction and rendering, computer vision, and machine learning, specifically focusing on eyes and/or faces. The preferred candidate will have experience in areas including 3D reconstruction with dynamic deformations, diffusion models, photoreal rendering, novel view synthesis, as well as expertise in deep implicit models, and disentangled latent representation learning. We welcome students with a passion for working in a strongly collaborative team that spans research across algorithms, hardware design and systems prototyping.Our team at Meta Reality Labs offers sixteen (16) to twenty four (24) week long internships and we have various start dates throughout the year.
