These techniques enable the seemingly impossible: seeing around corners, seeing through fog as if it were a sunny day, perception in pitch dark and detecting circulating tumor cells with a device resembling a blood-pressure cuff.
His recent ventures Akasha Imaging and UbiCept AI exploit multiple untapped dimensions of imaging for unconventional computer vision and machine learning. This talk will touch some of the envisioned applications of this technology.
