Summary:
The Reality Labs (RL) Research Team brings together a world-class team of researchers, developers, and engineers to create the future of AR and VR, which together will become as universal and essential as smartphones and personal computers are today. We are developing all the technologies needed to enable breakthrough AR glasses and VR headsets, including computer vision, graphics, body tracking, perception science, and true telepresence. The Virtual Humans team in Sausalito, CA and Zurich, CF 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 full body capture and reconstruction. We are currently seeking innovative interns with a passion for rendering and innovative 3D representations and capture technologies.Our internships are twelve (12) to sixteen (16) to twenty four (24) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year.Research Topics:* 3D human digitization* Facial capture* Virtual telepresence* Applied deep learning* Advanced shading models* Neural and differentiable rendering* Implicit modelsOur internships are twelve (12) to sixteen (24) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year.
