DESCRIPTION:David will be presenting KinectFusion\, a system d
 eveloped by the Sensors and Devices group at MSR C
 ambridge that enables a user holding and moving a 
 standard Kinect camera to rapidly create detailed 
 3D\nreconstructions of an indoor scene. Only the d
 epth data from Kinect is used to track the 3D pose
  of the sensor and reconstruct\, geometrically pre
 cise\, 3D models of the physical scene in real-tim
 e. Novel extensions to the core GPU pipeline demon
 strate object segmentation\nand user interaction d
 irectly in front of the sensor\, without degrading
  camera tracking or reconstruction. These extensio
 ns are used to enable real-time multi-touch intera
 ctions anywhere\, allowing any planar or non-plana
 r reconstructed physical surface to be appropriate
 d\nfor touch. As part of his presentation\, he wil
 l interactively demonstrate the uses of the core s
 ystem for low-cost handheld scanning\, and geometr
 y-aware augmented reality and physics-based intera
 ctions.\n\nBiography:\n\nDavid Kim is an off-site 
 Ph.D. candidate at Newcastle University Culture La
 b since 2009 and joined the Sensors and Devices gr
 oup at Microsoft Research Cambridge UK in 2010. Hi
 s current research focuses on novel input and outp
 ut technologies for 3D spatial and natural\nintera
 ction. In particular\, he is interested in hologra
 phic user interfaces\, 3D input with haptic and ta
 ctile feedback and augmented reality technologies 
 that enable unencumbered realistic interaction wit
 h virtual content without instrumenting the user. 
 His recent works\ninclude KinectFusion\, a system 
 for real-time dense surface reconstruction and geo
 metry-aware interaction with Kinect\, HoloDesk a s
 ituated see-through display that enables direct 3D
  interaction\, and augmented projectors for 3D int
 eraction with a pico projector. Before moving to t
 he UK\, he received his M.Sc. degree in Media Info
 rmatics from University of Munich (LMU) in 2008 an
 d had been working on novel multi-touch technologi
 es and applications in the Fluidum group in\nMunic
 h.
