The XR People Generation team works in collaboration with Reality Labs Research partners in order to deliver the future of communication - photorealistic telepresence via Codec Avatars.
Our aspiration is to connect people separated by distance as if they were in the same room together. We achieve this by researching, developing and productionizing state-of-the-art methods in cross sections of computer graphics, computer vision and machine learning for human understanding and telepresence.
These include (semi-) supervised deep learning, generative adversarial learning, active learning, neural rendering, depth sensing, 3D reconstruction, character animation and rendering.
Read the overview of this opportunity to understand what skills, including and relevant soft skills and software package proficiencies, are required.
