I am a PhD student in the Computational Imaging Lab at Rice University.
I am interested in developing methods for imaging systems or visual display systems using ideas from Image and Signal Processing, Computer Vision, Optics, Deep Learning. I aspire to gain “full-stack knowledge” of imaging systems and use it for novel applications - and in process solve sensing problems in healthcare, robotics, autonomous navigation, AR/VR, etc.
I am currently researching on imaging and vision problems to help and aid in surgery and surgical robotics.
I am interested in new and exciting opportunities, and happy to talk to people about the same.
You can reach out to me on LinkedIn or at bhargav.ghanekar@rice.edu.
