Hi! Hallo! ¡Hola! Hej! 你好！

Welcome to my homepage!

I am a first-year Ph.D. student in Informatics at the Technical University of Munich where I joined the 3D Understanding Group.
My research focuses on recreating and understanding 3D environments and how humanoid actors can interact with them.

  • I started experimenting with computer vision algorithms during my Bachelor studies at the University of Augsburg where I wrote my thesis about deep convolutional neural networks.
  • During my Master studies at the Technical University of Munich, I specialized in fusing and understanding 3D scenes. This is where my modern implementation of the KinectFusion approach was created.
  • I also took a peek into the application of computer vision in medical environments during my internships at Dynamify GmbH and Ditabis AG.
  • I received my M.Sc. (Informatics) in the Summer of 2019. My thesis topic was 3D Shape Completion from Sparse Point Clouds which I worked on at the Visual Computing Lab under the supervision of Matthias Nießner.

You can find a collection of projects I have worked on so far on this page. There is also a dedicated area for blog posts which I might fill in the future.

I enjoy photography so here are some of the pictures I have taken:
