SUMMARY:Vortrag | Marcus Magnor, TU Braunschweig
DESCRIPTION:&nbsp; \n\n\n\nSprecher\nMarcus Magnor, TU Braunschweig\n\n\n\nTitel\n\n\nVisual Computing - Bridging Real and Digital Domain\n\n\n\n&nbsp;\n\nAny luminous or illuminated object continuously emits images of itself, in all directions and\nover huge distances. At the speed of light images convey a wealth of information about their\norigins, which our visual system can decipher almost without effort, in real time, extremely\nefficient, and enormously robust. Consequently, the visual sense has evolved to become our prime\nmodality for gathering information of our environs.\nIn my talk I will outline how we have only just begun to exploit visual information as the ideal\ninterface between the real and digital world, as well as between the digital domain and human\nbrains. In this respect, Visual Computing constitutes an enabling technology of the 21. century\nthat will pave the way for technological advances of substantial socio-economic impact.\n\nSpeaker’s Bio\nMarcus Magnor heads the Computer Graphics Lab of the Computer Science Department at Technische\nUniversität Braunschweig (TU Braunschweig). He received his BA (1995) and MS (1997) in Physics from\nWürzburg University and the University of New Mexico, respectively, and his PhD (2000) in\nElectrical Engineering from Erlangen University. For his post-graduate studies, he joined the\nComputer Graphics Lab at Stanford University. In 2002, he established the Independent Research\nGroup Graphics-Optics-Vision at the Max-Planck-Institut Informatik in Saarbrücken. He completed his\nhabilitation in 2005 and received the venia legendi for Computer Science from Saarland University.\nIn 2009, he was Fulbright Scholar at the University of New Mexico, USA, where he holds an\nappointment as adjunct professor at the Physics and Astronomy Department. His research interests\nmeander along the visual information processing pipeline, i.e. from image formation, acquisition,\nand analysis to image synthesis, display, perception, and cognition. Areas of research include (but\nare not limited to) computer graphics, computer vision, visual perception, image processing,\ncomputational photography, astrophysics, imaging, optics, visual analytics, and visualization.\n\n\n\n&nbsp; \nSee&nbsp; \nhttp://www.sfbtrr161.de/events/events.html&nbsp;for\nall events of the Collaborative Research Center/Transregio 161
