The XR Eyes team is part of Reality Labs and develops and productizes cutting-edge Eye Tracking CV/ML solutions that power next-gen AR/VR devices. Our Eye Tracking solutions enable fundamental use cases and technologies in areas such as Photorealistic Avatars (Social Presence), Graphics, Display and Optics, and Multimodal UI Interaction. The team has already shipped eye-tracking solutions in the Quest Pro (2022 VR/MR headset) and Orion (2024 AR Glasses) and is working on several next generation devices across AR & MR.The team is composed of Computer Vision, Machine Learning and SW Engineers. We work cross-functionally with teams across multiple disciplines, such as graphics, optics, silicon, and sensors, to design and develop novel Eye Tracking solutions tailored for the requirements and constraints of each particular device.
