Vamsi K Ithapu

Hello.
​
I build Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies for health and wellness, for individuals as well as ecological systems.
​​
Currently, I am working on the intersection of AI systems and wearables computing, at Meta Reality Labs research; with the goal of improving individual health and social connectivity.
​
-
I am a Research Science Manager and Technical Lead, supporting AI R&D activities on wearables for enhancing hearing, improving hearing health, reducing acoustic cognitive load, and improving perceptual realism in connectivity applications. These R&D activities contribute to Augmented reality, smart glasses as well as virtual reality wearables platforms.
-
Additionally, I am a people manager supporting a team of AI researchers and engineers bridging egocentric AI systems with wearables computing. ​​
​​​
Prior to Meta Research, I finished my PhD at University of Wisconsin-Madison in Computer Sciences. Please visit here for more details about my background and my group's work in Meta!
