Research Scientist Intern - Applied Perception Science, PhD

We are seeking a Research Scientist Intern with expertise at the intersection of human visual perception and AR display technology. This role is focused on advancing our understanding of color and contrast perception to improve the user experience for augmented reality products, with a specific goal of establishing guidance for accessibility and UI quality. The core technical work involves defining and implementing perceptual models to experimentally determine the chromatic contrast. This fundamental research will guide display control, color/gamut mapping, and establish UI color scheme requirements for seamless blending of virtual and real-world objects. Our internships are twelve (12) to twenty-four (24) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year.
