Biographical sketch

I have been with the Human Interface Engineering Laboratory, directed by Dr. Fumio Kishino, since August 2003. My work here is mentored and inspired by Dr. Yoshifumi Kitamura. I am also fortunate to enjoy the support and collaboration of a team of good people, my lab members.

I completed my Ph.D. in Computing Science in July 2003 at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada. My research was guided and inspired by the kind supervision of Dr. Ben Watson and Dr. Jonathan Schaeffer. The title of my dissertation was “Blurring the Boundaries - Spatial Tangible User Interfaces for Cognitive Assessment”.

I received my M.Sc. in Electrical and Computer Engineering in 1997 from Ben-Gurion University, Israel (Magna Cum Laude). My dissertation title was “Optical Estimation of Burn Wound Depth”, my work was supervised by Dr. Jonathan Molcho.

My B.Sc. in Electrical and Computer Engineering is also from Ben-Gurion University, Israel (1990). The title of my senior year project was “Non Invasive Electro-Optical Bilirubin Meter (Automatic Infant Jaundice Probe)”, supervised by Dr. Jonathan Molcho.

Between 1991 and 1998 I worked as a senior researcher and research director with several Israeli R&D labs. My main research themes during this period were image processing, computer vision and tracking algorithms, electro-optical design, numerical simulation, and user studies.

I am married to Amira, father to Noga and Naomi.
