I have always been fascinated about doing research and being part of new technology. Making computers smarter is a huge challenge and lot of smart people are working on the problem. I hope to make my contribution to research by working on Vision algorithms. I have also worked on Bioinformatics, Pattern Recognition, and Information Retrieval. There is great scope for using more intelligent processes in all these applications.

At the University of Kansas, I worked on developing the system and algorithms for automatic tracking of objects in surveillance video with Dr. Donna Haverkamp. KUVidAnalysis was a great way to get started in Computer Vision. The projects page has a few more details and links to my thesis work at Kansas.

One of the most challenging and unique projects I worked on was the Nanosatellite project at Kansas where we developed a satellite system that we launched regularly on high-altitude balloons.
