Job Description

Reality Labs (RL) teams are looking for exceptional interns to help us create the next generation of human-centric interaction technologies for virtual and augmented reality. Join a full-stack team working on computer vision, machine learning, generative modelling, geometric and appearance modeling, physically-based modeling, sensor design and fusion, and human computer interaction. We are accepting applications from those interested in (but not limited to) the following areas:Tracking of bodies, faces and hands and their interactions through machine learning, computer vision and sensor fusionEgocentric human action recognition and emotion recognitionGenerative models for human motion and interactions from diverse sensors and conditioning signalsRepresentation modeling (e.g., implicit, appearance, geometry) of hands, bodies and objects for fast simulation and trackingEfficient deep learning (e.g., neural architecture search, sparsity, quantized networks) Interaction design for hands, bodies and objects in virtual reality and augmented realitySensor fusion (e.g. of pressure, RF, EXG, IMU) with optical tracking for human centric use casesEfficient and generalizable detectors for predicting keypoints, segmentations, normals, and depth*Accurate and efficient 3D representations of deformable shapes such as clothing and hair
