Research Scientist Intern, Applied Vision in Augmented Reality (PhD)

The Applied Perception Science team at Meta Reality Labs is seeking a research scientist intern to join our vision science program, focusing on visual perception in augmented reality (AR) headsets. This role will help pioneer foundational research into the interaction between AR digital content and the real world in see-through displays, informing display technologies in next-generation AR devices.

Requirements

• Work on topics in spatio-temporal/color perception during eye movements to support research in AR head-mounted display technologies
• Design and conduct psychophysical experiments to quantify visual perception with AR displays, including studies that account for individual differences in visual perception and novel display architectures
• Conceive and develop models of visual perception to help guide emerging AR display technologies
• Collaborate and communicate with scientists and engineers across a variety of disciplines to design vision science studies in an applied context

Benefits

• Flexible internship dates
• Opportunity to work with a multidisciplinary team
• Potential for significant results and recognition
