Teaching

Projects

Computer graphics can revolutionize standard practices in education and training through courses that naturally integrate math, science, technology, arts and through research that enables inexpensive and accessible computer-based expert instruction. My teaching and research efforts strive to bring about such changesthrough development of course curriculums; design of methods for analysis, interpretation, and generation of human motion; design of modeling techniques for acquiring and animating arbitrary three-dimensional shapes; and development of simulation systems for improving medical training and enhancing design of humanoid robots.
