R&D Engineer - Computer Vision
Location: Berlin
Vision being the dominant human sense, eye tracking constitutes a powerful approach for understanding the human mind! At Pupil Labs, our mission is to provide cutting-edge eye-tracking solutions, which are more robust, accurate, accessible, and user-friendly than ever before. Already today, our products empower thousands of users in academia and industry, clinical surgeons, elite athletes, astronauts on the international space station, and many more. Unlocking the full potential of eye-tracking technology relies on solving hard research problems, ranging from core gaze-estimation algorithms to developing cloud-based algorithmic tools allowing for the high-level analysis of terabytes of egocentric video data (e.g. semantic segmentation, pose estimation, action recognition, SLAM, SfM, …).
The interdisciplinary R&D team at Pupil Labs, comprising members with backgrounds in Computer Science, Computational Neuroscience, Mathematics, and Physics, is tackling these challenges head on! In close collaboration with other engineering teams, we identify promising R&D avenues and take pride in seeing our results being swiftly integrated into the latest products shipped to our customers.
