Research Scientist Intern, Physics-based Simulation, Mesh Processing for Avatars

Descrizione del lavoro:

The Meta 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, robotics, perception science, and true telepresence. The Virtual Humans team in Sausalito, CA, Redmond, WA and Zurich, CF work on cutting-edge research and development focusing on virtual people and robotics. We are currently seeking innovative interns with a passion for technology to develop the next generation of virtual humans and robotics. Our internships are twelve (12) to twenty four (24) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year. Research Topics: * Physics-based simulation for deformable objects * Rigging and linear blend skinning * Geometry processing, mesh representations * Object modeling, volumetric representation * Non-rigid registration * Differentiable simulation * Applied machine learning
Investigate, design and develop novel algorithms in areas such as full body, cloth and hair modeling, simulation and animation, surface and volumetric reconstructions, for avatars, digital humans, virtual try-on applications and robotics applications for soft-body interactions. Prototyping, building and analysis of experimental systems. Design and execution of algorithms. Collaboration with and support of other researchers across various disciplines. Communication of research agenda, progress and results
