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 augmented reality glasses and 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.Work with researchers to help enable their work across the following research disciplines: - Human Computer Interaction- Human-AI InteractionOur 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.
