Summary（岗位介绍）
Meta Reality Labs Research (RLR), Redmond, is looking for exceptional interns to help create the next generation of virtual and augmented reality. Our research focuses on true solutions to complex eye tracking problems, delivering novel technologies and algorithms fundamental to future VR and AR systems. You’ll have the unique opportunity to work with industry-leading researchers and engineers who are defining the future of VR. The ideal candidate is pursuing a PhD with a strong background in eye tracking and data analysis.
In particular, we seek candidates with expertise in the analysis and modeling of eye tracking to understand, predict, and assess human visual attention and perception. We welcome candidates who strive for a deep understanding of complex systems, and a strong desire to push beyond state-of-the-art. We also welcome students with a passion for working in a strongly collaborative team that spans research across human perception, algorithms, hardware design and systems prototyping.
Our team at Reality Labs Research offers sixteen (16) to twenty-four (24) week long internships and we have various start dates throughout the year.
