Job Description

We seek talented students to join the MPS Student XR Dev Team, to help Duke professors and staff realize their Augmented Reality (AR) project dreams. One paradigm we are targeting is phone/tablet AR, where the user walks around and uses the phone/tablet as a magic window in which custom content can appear superimposed onto the view of the real world. Widespread usage of this AR paradigm was experienced in games such as Pokemon GO. Our current projects involve solving the mystery of the missing statue at the Chapel entrance and adapting this AR Covid Memorial program to the 150 Faces of Durham Project.

Prior experience (or ability to come up to speed) in Lens Studio/Snapchat (JavaScript), as that is what some existing projects are using.
