Summary（岗位介绍）
Reality Labs brings together a world-class team of researchers, developers, and engineers to create the future of virtual and augmented reality, which together will become as universal and essential as smartphones and personal computers are today. Just as personal computers have done over the past 45 years, AR and VR will ultimately change everything about how we work, play, and connect. We are developing all the technologies needed to enable breakthrough AR glasses and VR headsets, including optics and displays, computer vision, audio, graphics, brain-computer interface, haptic interaction, eye/hand/face/body tracking, perception science, and true telepresence. Some of those will advance much faster than others, but they all need to happen to enable AR and VR that are so compelling that they become an integral part of our lives.
We are currently seeking an innovative Research Scientist with a passion for technology to develop the next generation of virtual humans. The focus of this role is on facial performance and appearance capture, reconstruction and rendering. The position requires a combination of education and experience in computer vision, computer graphics, and machine learning.
