Facebook: Towards Trustworthy Products in AR, VR, and Smart Devices

interested in a broad range of topics relating to applications such as AR and wearables, VR products, other AR/VR form-factors, smart home social products, and more. Examples might include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Novel proposals in silicon, hardware, OS/platform, supply-chain, or anti-tamper in this space — whether they are threats, attacks, or mitigations
• User-verifiable privacy controls or privacy-preserving techniques in the context of unique sensors, data, and use cases
• Advancements in terms of identity, authentication, authorization, abuse-prevention, or biometrics, as they pertain to said devices and technologies
• Security and privacy advancements in voice assistants, smart devices, smart home cameras
• Novel security and privacy techniques for spatial mapping and localization, such as local attestation or point cloud geometry hashing
• Any novel or new concepts in trust as applied to the AR/VR and smart devices space that warrant further exploration.

Funding: $75K. Overhead for research gifts is limited to 5%.
