om/   The Smart Eyewear LAB, a pioneering project in heart of Milan   The EssilorLuxottica Smart Eyewear LAB is the first joint research centre ever between EssilorLuxottica and Politecnico di Milano aimed at designing the smart-glasses of the future, a new generation of wearables which are capable of autonomous network connection.
It is a pioneering project that will enable the development of new technologies and services using a widely used interface such as eyewear.
The EssilorLuxottica Smart Eyewear Lab in Milan will work as part of the EssilorLuxottica Group’s R&D platform, which is already operating globally.
The EssilorLuxottica Smart Eyewear Lab will initially last five years and will employ over 100 enthusiastic and talented researchers and scientists working closely together in a dedicated space within the Innovation District in Milan.
Envision your future job in the LAB By joining EssilorLuxottica and EssilorLuxottica Smart Eyewear Lab you’ll have the opportunity to live first-hand an immersive experience in technology, innovation and the future.
As a plus, you’ll work in a passion-driven and diverse environment made up of international and various stakeholders.
In this context, we are looking for a highly motivated physicist/physical engineer for the development of innovative augmented reality solutions to be applied on future smart glasses.
As a physicist/physical engineer in this project, you will work closely with the research teams from Politecnico di Milano and EssilorLuxottica, dealing with new challenges to develop innovative solutions for embedding AR solutions on spectacles.
In particular, the physicist/physical engineer will be included in the optical integration research stream of the Smart Eyewear Lab.
Your tasks and responsibilities   State of the art analysis.
Identify relevant previous studies on a specific topic, select the most relevant approaches by comparing them and implement the proposed solutions.
Optical device prototyping.
Design and build optical devices prototypes Nanophotonics devices modelling and fabrication.
Apply optical simulation software to the design of nanophotonics devices.
Basic of fabrication Testing protocols and data analysis.
Test and validate nano-optics devices through ad-hoc defined protocols and analyze data.
Optical integration and industrialization.
Integrate optical system into eyewear and define industrialization methods.
Portrait of a perfect candidate   The ideal candidate is a physicist/physical engineer with research and development skills, interested in the world of smart eyewear devices, capable of developing innovative solutions independently but at the same time working in a team with heterogeneous skills, bringing his own contribution in the development of complex and highly innovative solutions.
