Quang-Tuan Luong

I was a research scientist working in computer vision and image processing in the Artifical Intelligence Center of SRI International. My research projects (3 US patents) had the common theme of extracting three-dimensional information from a set of images. In particular, I was known (ranked by Research Index in top 1500 most cited computer science authors, out of more than 750,000) for the introduction, in my PhD thesis "Fundamental Matrix and Self-calibration", of a new approach to uncalibrated three-dimensional vision based on projective geometry, further described in the book with Olivier Faugeras The geometry of multiple images (MIT Press 2001, paperback 2004). I am currently a full-time photographer - and internet entrepreneur. I was the first to photograph all the 58 US National Parks with a large format (5x7 inch) camera. More than 15,000 nature and travel images can be seen at www.terragalleria.com.
