Meta AR/VR Job | Optical Scientist Intern, Imaging for Human-Computer Interaction (PhD)
Job（岗位）: Optical Scientist Intern, Imaging for Human-Computer Interaction (PhD)
Type（岗位类型）: Artificial Intelligence, Computer Vision, Engineering, Machine Learning, Research
Citys（岗位城市）: Burlingame, CA
Date（发布日期）: Before 2021-12-14
Summary（岗位介绍）
At Facebook Reality Labs, our goal is to invent the user interface technologies that will drive the next generation of augmented-reality experiences. Our aim is to unleash human potential by erasing the bottlenecks between intent and action. As an Optical Scientist Intern, you will focus on developing novel interactions and interfaces for augmented reality glasses. Your work would involve developing novel imaging modalities and image processing methods to understand the user input and/or the surrounding environment.
Our research lies at the intersection of machine learning, computer vision, optical imaging, depth sensing, and human-computer interaction. You will work with world-leading collaborators and mentors in the AR/VR, optical imaging, depth sensing, machine learning, signal processing, and HCI fields.
Qualifications（岗位要求）
Currently has, or is in the process of obtaining, a PhD in the field of human-computer interaction, artificial intelligence, computer science, electrical engineering, optical engineering, or similar.
Experience in bringing up, testing, and validating optical sensing and tracking systems, e.g., time of flight, depth sensors, RGB or Monochrome camera systems.
3+ years of experience with scientific programming languages such as Matlab, Python, and/or C++/C#.
Must obtain work authorization in the country of employment at the time of hire and maintain ongoing work authorization during employment.
Description（岗位职责）
Bring up, test, and validate new optical sensing and tracking systems to advance AR/VR interaction technologies for processing user input and/or object recognitions.
Develop novel optical sensing/imaging modalities and image processing methods to enable human computer interaction in real-time.
Research next generation wearable optical sensing devices for human-computer interaction.
Collaborate with researchers, engineers, and designers across disciplines to solve complex problems and evaluate the effectiveness of developed solutions through user evaluations.
Work with leading academic researchers to produce publishable research that appears in top-tier journals or at leading international conferences in the HCI or computer vision field.
Additional Requirements（额外要求）
Familiarity with AR/VR technologies and literature.
Experience with computer vision or computational imaging.
Experience with depth sensing techniques.
Experience with computational interaction and/or building models of interaction intent for real-time interactive scenarios (e.g., gesture recognition, object recognition, task inference).
Experience with machine learning (e.g., time-series modeling, deep learning, RL, personalization).
Proven track record of achieving significant results as demonstrated by grants, fellowships, patents, as well as first-authored publications at leading workshops or conferences such as CHI, ICML, CVPR, ECCV, SPIE, OSA, UIST and IMWUT, or similar.
Intent to return to degree-program after the completion of the internship/co-op.
