The most amazing...
...product I've kickstarted is a $30 mixed reality headset called ZapBox. It's a low-barrier solution for room-scale MR experiences based on Zappar's platform.
Work Experience
Software Engineer
Hella Aglaia Mobile Vision GmbH
- Researched and developed 3D object detection methods with deep learning for LiDAR point clouds.
- Worked on a multi-camera and LiDAR fusion approach for object detection from prototype to production. Grew the team from one to five members.
- Supervised a master thesis student on dynamic occupancy grid mapping with particle filter using radar data. Led to a joint publication.
Computer Vision Research Contractor
Zappar LTD
- Developed a novel pattern and detection method. Created fast, robust, and precise localization methods for marker-based augmented reality at a room scale. Helped kickstart the new ZapBox mixed reality headset product and its production.
- Developed a visual search index for research and development (R&D) purposes.
- Developed a novel pattern detection method and OCR classifier for mobile phone research and development (R&D).
Back-end Mapping Specialist
Wonderbly
- Analyzed 35,000 satellite images for image quality problems, including stitching quality, to guide the second product release risk assessment. After selling a million books and getting Google ventures on board, this was the company's second product.
- Developed a reactive web labeling tool for satellite images.
- Invited a team of undergraduate students to label 35,000 satellite images and obtain a week-long internship.
Image Processing Engineer
Skin Analytics
- Pivoted the company strategy by developing a dermoscopic mole segmentation method. This was the foundation of the company's rescue funding of £500,000 after running into startup cash-flow issues.
- Completed a government research grant worth £100,000 and focused on full-body mole screening.
- Supported the computer vision team, which developed a dry-skin beauty classifier and mobile application.
Master Thesis Student
BMW
- Developed a massively parallel particle filter and evaluated the classifier performance regarding occupancy grid mapping and static or dynamic classification.
- Researched a novel particle filter approach and facilitated better understanding and evaluation of such method inside the R&D group, which led to new publications.
- Combined the particle filter approach with Dempster-Shafer grids, which led to the publication of a new IEEE paper.
