In 2012, based on my research, I co-founded faceshift AG, an EPFL spin-off that brought high-quality markerless facial motion capture to the consumer market which was acquired in 2015 by Apple Inc. I was also fortunate to receive the 2018 Eurographics Young Researcher Award. My thesis on realtime face tracking and animation was awarded the 2016 SIGGRAPH outstanding doctoral dissertation award honorable mention, the 2015 ETHZ Fritz Kutter PhD thesis award, and the 2015 EPFL Patrick Denantes PhD award honorable mention. I completed my PhD degree in 2015 in the Computer Graphics and Geometry Laboratory ( LGG) at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL).
You can find some of my work on Google Scholar. My research interests include machine learning, computer vision, and computer graphics. Prior to Google, I was a principal research scientist at Apple where I designed, developed, and productized the realtime face tracking algorithm powering the iPhone X Animojis and also available to third-party developers through ARKit. We shipped multiple successful technologies, e.g., depth reconstruction for the Pixel 4 depth sensor, ARCore depth API, Pixel 5 portrait relighting, TensorFlow Graphics. We develop state of the art technologies for scene and human reconstruction/understanding, and publish at world top conferences. reported to have acquired Faceshift AG, the Swiss maker of the. I am currently a research scientist and group manager at Google, where I lead and manage a large perception team working on cutting edge AR research and development. OK, so maybe the time frame might be somewhat off but those words now have a link to the company Steve Jobs founded with Apple, Inc.
