Research Activities

My research topics are organized along two main axes:

  1. Computer Vision, with a focus on plenoptic imaging and light-field technologies, sensors calibration (conventional and non-conventional), and depth estimation;
  2. Robotics, with a focus on 3D mapping, localization, and the use of lidar sensors (point clouds, 3D registration, and in particular Iterative Closest Point (ICP) algorithms).
