Biography
I am a Professor in the Computer Science Department at ETH Zurich. I lead the AIT lab and serve as the head of the Institute of Intelligent Interactive Systems.
My research is in spatio-temporal understanding of how humans move within and interact with the physical world. I research algorithms, methods and representations for human- and interaction-centric understanding of our world from videos, images and other sensor data. I'm interested in many different application domains such as Augmented and Virtual Reality, Human Robot Interaction and more.
Prior to joining ETH I was a postdoc and later a researcher at Microsoft Research Cambridge, in the I3D group(2010-2013). I was awarded a Diplom (equiv. MSc) in Computer Science from Technische Universität München and my PhD in Computer Science from LMU München, Germany (2009).
