Research Interests:
biomechanics of human joints
measurement of skeletal motion
imaging
robotics

Current Running Projects:
Engineering - Radiographic measurement of skeletal motion
Participate in the development of an open-source software platform for measuring skeletal motion from x-ray images. The software utilizes computer graphics techniques to measure the pose of 3D objects from one or more 2D X-ray images. Computer graphics, imaging processing, and numerical optimization are main parts of the project.

Requirements: Experience with C++, OpenGL, Python and/or other programming languages. Preferred knowledges/interests: computer graphics (OpenGL, etc), software framework/structure design, biomechanics.
