Summary（岗位介绍）
At Reality Labs, our goal is to invent the user input and interface technologies that will transform the virtual, augmented, and mixed reality experiences. Mixed and augmented reality (XR) devices blur the boundaries between the physical and the digital worlds, resulting in user inputs that are noisy and unreliable and an interaction environment that is not fully known to the system. And yet these devices can display information to the user in a low-friction manner that is more tightly coupled to one’s body and the physical environment, exposing the opportunity for persistent “always-on” assistance. We argue that to build effective XR interactions, we must (1) reduce system uncertainty by understanding the user and environment, and (2) effectively adapt the interface to engage the user in uncertainty reduction and to allow for online learning and personalization. Modern methods in AI and machine learning are important to achieve these goals.
We are looking for a talented Research Scientist with expertise and passion for building intelligent adaptive interactions and interfaces, to join Reality Labs’ research organization. Ideal candidates will have a passion for the intersection of science, design, and engineering of novel interaction solutions and expertise with computational and machine learning methods. Researchers will have the opportunity to publish in peer-reviewed conferences and journals and are expected to effectively collaborate with cross-disciplinary experts, including applied machine learning, electrical, mechanical, and software engineering, perceptual science, and design.
