Summary（岗位介绍）

Reality Labs at Meta is developing technologies, hardware, and experiences to work towards our long term goal of creating the Metaverse. Our organization produces VR headsets (Quest 1 and 2) that are affordable and enjoyable by millions using software to outperform more expensive solutions. Additionally we are developing AR headsets which will hopefully enable a new computing platform and be a new tool to explore the world. Creating all of this requires a symphony of collaboration between hardware, software engineers, designers, and researchers to push the state of the art in computer vision, graphics, cartography, and optics.

The On-device Mapping Team within Reality Labs and the XR Maps organization develops the mapping software that enables Meta headsets to map and remember their environments. This is a critical role in the Metaverse as we provide an essential service required for rendering anything; a common coordinate system. We are developing the map representation and algorithms to enable persistent, real-time, sharing experiences between devices. We create performance optimized bundle adjustment and are one of the teams that develop our state of the art Insight SLAM system. Our challenges focus on large operating environments being processed on embedded systems so we can be low-power and sensitive to privacy. We are involved in the development of all Meta AR, VR, and Mixed Reality products so that one day they can all fluidly communicate together and give life to another world.
