Goodrich » Ramesh Jain » Aditi Majumder » Gopi Meenakshisundaram » Deva Ramanan » Bill Tomlinson Focuses on the field of visual computing that deals with generating/capturing, representing, rendering and interacting with synthetic and real-world images and video. We work on end-to-end solutions from capturing of images and geometry; representing large geometric, image, and video data sets; geometry and image processing; interactive access and rendering of large visual data sets; algorithms for building large area immersive displays for the presentation of visual content; and interation techniques in both small personal displays and in large displays for collaborative environments.
Current and future research areas include, but are not limited to:
» Designing new cameras with advanced capabilities for capturing real-world scenes.
» Image processing for enhanced visual content quality
» Computational geometry and graph algorithms for geometry processing
» Interactive rendering of very large geometric data sets.
» Ubiquitous displays -- Reconfigurable multi-projector display systems.
» Interaction techniques for large area displays.
» Sketch based modeling and interaction for personal displays.
Applications are Internet-based visualization of remotely located complex objects, volume manipulation and visualization, geographic information systems, and simplified 3-D rendering based on 2-D images.
