About: David Kim
David Kim is a member of the Digital Interaction Group at Culture Lab, Newcastle University and is an off-site Ph.D. candidate working within the Sensors and Devices group at Microsoft Research in Cambridge. He received his M.Sc. in Media Informatics from University of Munich (LMU) in 2008. His current research focuses on novel input and output technologies for 3D spatial and natural interaction. In particular, he is interested in holographic user interfaces, 3D input with haptic and tactile feedback and augmented reality technologies that enable unencumbered realistic interaction with virtual content without instrumenting the user. His recent work include KinectFusion, a system for real-time dense surface reconstruction and geometry-aware interaction with Kinect, HoloDesk a situated see-through display that enables direct 3D interaction, and augmented projectors for 3D interaction with a pico projector. Before moving to the UK, he had been working on novel multi-touch technologies and applications in the Fluidum group in Munich.
