> Joseph Wu served as a Product Design Prototyper Intern on the Input Explorations team at Meta Reality Labs, where he specialized in enhancing Mixed Reality (MR) user experiences through multi-modal interactive inputs. His work focused on the development of gesture-based interaction prototypes specifically designed for MR communication scenarios. These high-fidelity prototypes, which integrated gestures, eye tracking, speech, and touchpads, were prominently showcased at Meta Connect 2022.

# Meta Reality Labs

Meta Connect 2022 showcased gesture-based interaction prototypes developed during my internship as a Product Design Prototyper on the Input Explorations team at Meta Reality Labs. These prototypes demonstrated mixed reality (MR) communication use cases, highlighting how interactive inputs improve the overall user experience.

The Input Explorations team investigated several interactive input technologies to enhance MR experiences:
*   Gestures
*   Eye tracking
*   Speech
*   Touchpads

My role specifically involved exploring gesture interactions to enhance communication scenarios. This work contributed to the development of gesture-based interaction prototypes that demonstrate the practical application of input technologies in mixed reality communication.
