Research Scientist Intern, Human Understanding

vor 7 Monaten


Zurich, Schweiz Meta Vollzeit

Towards this mission, the Reality Labs (RL) team is helping people around the world to come together and connect through world-class AR/VR hardware and software. We are seeking exceptional Research Interns to join the RL XR People team and create a revolution in VR/AR: achieving true photorealistic telepresence. XR People is an organization focused on productizing novel human understanding technologies on VR/AR devices (for example we shipped face and body tracking technologies on Quest Pro). Through understanding of human appearance, movement and expression, the XR People team enables immersive new experiences that bring people closer together and enhance the way we interact with each other and computers.Available projects may include, but are not limited to:

- Neural Rendering for photo realistic avatars* High quality reflectance fields using a mobile phone scan* Domain adaptation* 3D generative models* Geometry and texture for hands, especially self-contact cases.* Inverse rendering* Geometry processing for humans data* 3D gaussian splatting* Face and body trackingOur internships are twelve (12) to sixteen (16) to twenty four (24) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year.

**Research Scientist Intern, Human Understanding (PhD) Responsibilities**:

- Solve real problems in enabling Photorealistic Telepresence.
- Develop and execute on an R&D agenda related to computer vision, computer graphics or machine learning.
- Collaboration with and support of other researchers across various disciplines.
- Push the state of the art research from recent top conferences (e.g., CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, SIGGRAPH, NeurIPS, ICLR, PAMI, IJCV).

**Minimum Qualifications**:
