Summary（岗位介绍）
The Virtual Humans team works on cutting-edge research and development focusing on virtual people and presence. We envision a world where people connect across vast distances, so our roles focus on capturing, evaluating and modeling the full human body shape and motion. We are currently seeking innovative Research Engineers with a passion for technology to develop the next generation of virtual humans. As a Research Engineer, you will foster our scientific explorations in areas like human shape, motion, and appearance capture, biophysical modeling, simulation and rendering. Together, let’s step into the adventure of a lifetime as we make science fiction real.
