Vision & Robotics
This award recognizes one or two researchers within seven years of receiving their PhD who have made distinguished research contributions to computer vision.
Team leader David Watkins discusses how playing computer games can give roboticists real-world insights.
Assistant Professor Carl Vondrick, Didac Souris, and Ruoshi Liu developed a computer vision algorithm for predicting human interactions and body language in video, a capability that could have applications for assistive technology, autonomous vehicles, and collaborative robots.
About
The group studies the computational foundations for visual and robotic intelligence. They investigate machines that are able to perceive their surroundings and interact with them too.
The group of ten faculty often collaborate across the sciences and the arts. They leverage insights from both nature and math to advance the fundamentals of perception and interaction, and they also transfer their research to tackle practical challenges across disciplines. Several of the faculty are cross-listed with the Data Science Institute.
