Description
At Meta Reality Labs Research, our world-class team of researchers, developers, and designers collaborate to create innovative user experiences with contextual AI. As a Research Intern, you will investigate how people and AI agents interact through various interfaces and develop groundbreaking sensing technologies, interactions, and interfaces for wearable devices. Our mission is to invent user interface technologies that drive the next generation of augmented-reality experiences, unleashing human potential by removing barriers between intent and action. In this role, you will combine modalities such as visual, inertial, radar, or depth sensors to enhance localization and mapping in diverse and challenging environments. You will explore cutting-edge techniques, including deep learning, sensor fusion, and novel algorithmic approaches to push the boundaries of SLAM for contextual AI applications. Our internships are twelve (12) to twenty-four (24) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year. Some projects may require a minimum of 16 consecutive weeks.
