Computational Optics and
Displays Engineering

We co-design optical systems and algorithms to sense, represent, and infer from high-dimensional visual signals such as videos, hyperspectral images, and lightfields.

Research

We work at the intersection of optics, metamaterials, machine learning, and signal processing, co-designing imaging systems in which the camera and the algorithms behind it are treated as a single problem — from the physics of light to the priors of deep networks.
