My research interests primarily revolve around the improvement and optimization of optical motion capture technologies in the application of human movement measurement. Specifically the use of secondary redundant information sources in tandem with optical measurements coupled with kinematic modeling techniques to reduce the negative influence of occlusion on data quality. Secondary research interests include interactive 3D graphics/simulation and the application of embedded system in the measurement of human movement. I am involved in many projects around the lab and department where my technical skills have been required for the purposes of system design and integration in the implementation of numerous experiments studying human behavior.
