We are developing all the technologies needed to enable breakthrough Smartglasses, AR glasses, and VR headsets, including optics and displays, computer vision, audio, graphics, brain-computer interfaces, haptic interaction, eye/hand/face/body tracking, perception science, and true telepresence. Some of those will advance much faster than others, but they all need to happen to enable AR and VR that are so compelling that they become an integral part of our lives. RL Research is looking for an experienced, innovative Software Engineer to join our growing team. You will be partnering with a team of dedicated researchers, developers, and engineers. You will operate at the intersection of wearable devices, haptics, and reusable software to build a next generation research platform.
