What I do

I work on design and evaluation of sensor systems for autonomous navigation; feature and signal processing for non-invasive medical monitoring; speed, accuracy and representational issues for real-time stereo reconstruction; and modeling human motion and appearance.

Research Area:
Stereo vision; Immersive Telepresence; Image-based virtual environments; and Vision-based robot navigation.
