Biography
Jean-Philippe Tardif is currently a first year post-doctoral fellow at the National Robotics Engineering Center (NREC) of Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), under supervision of Prof. Tony Stentz. Previously, he was a post-doctoral fellow at the Center for Intelligent Machines (CIM) at McGill University under supervision of Prof. Michael Langer and at the GRASP laboratory of University of Pennsylvania under supervision of Prof. Kostas Daniilidis. He received a Ph.D. in computer vision from Université de Montréal in September 2007. His areas of research are structure from motion, SLAM, omnidirectional camera calibration and self-calibration, structured light reconstruction and place recognition. Over the years, he has collaborated with researchers from INRIA Rhône-Alpes and CNRS Clermont-Ferrand in France. He has also contributed to technological art projects in collaboration with artists of the SAT (Société des Arts Technologiques of Montréal). In particular, he is the co-inventor of a multiple projector system for which he holds a patent. This invention is the foundation for the LightTWIST immersive projection system.
