Meta Reality Labs focuses on delivering Meta's vision through Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR). In this project, we will seek to develop highly realistic digital characters with lifelike and expressive movement. Our approach will apply auto-regressive generative models to fundamental motion problems spanning animation, vision, and robotics. We are seeking exceptional interns with appropriate background and experience to join our team for internships between twelve (12) and twenty-four (24) weeks.

• Analyze, adapt, and evaluate current state-of-the-art models
• Research and develop new models and prototypes
• Share findings with other researchers across disciplines
• Present the outcomes of research findings as papers in top tier conferences

Minimum Qualifications:

• Currently has, or is in the process of obtaining, a PhD degree in Computer Science or a related field
• 2+ years of research experience in Computer Animation, Computer Vision, or Deep Learning
• Hands-on experience with frameworks such as Py Torch
• Must obtain work authorization in the country of employment at the time of hire and maintain ongoing work authorization during employment

Preferred Qualifications:

• Hands-on experience with applying deep networks to video or motion analysis or synthesis

About Meta:

Meta builds technologies that help people connect, find communities, and grow businesses. When Facebook launched in 2004, it changed the way people connect. Apps like Messenger, Instagram and Whats App further empowered billions around the world. Now, Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution in social technology. People who choose to build their careers by building with us at Meta help shape a future that will take us beyond what digital connection makes possible today-beyond the constraints of screens, the limits of distance, and even the rules of physics.
