Hi, I’m Charlie.

I am a Senior Computer Vision Research Scientist at Mathworks’ Advanced Research & Technology Office, where I aim to accelerate and amplify the impact of academic research on MathWorks’ products. Before this, I was a research scientist at Facebook Reality Labs, where I worked on depth sensor modelling and depth reconstruction algorithms for AR and VR products, such as the Meta Quest Pro.

I have a PhD in Electrical Engineering from Boston University, where I worked on exciting computational imaging problems as a member of Vivek K Goyal’s STIR lab. Prior to that, I lived in the UK, where I received a Master’s degree in Acoustical Engineering from the University of Southampton.
