Dr. Martin
is currently Vice President and CFO for Kitware Inc., a company devoted
to developing state of the art data visualization software.
He has made many contributions to the field of visualization
including a number of peer reviewed papers and patents. He is
co-author of The Visualization Toolkit: An Object Oriented Approach
to Computer Graphics (first & second edition) published
by Prentice Hall. This textbook is used for teaching visualization
at many universities around the world. Dr. Martin is co-developer
and lead architect for the Visualization Toolkit software (http://www.visualizationtoolkit.org)
which is considered to be one of the most comprehensive and
popular visualization packages available. He has presented and organized courses
for both SIGGRAPH and IEEE Visualization
conferences. Dr. Martin’s specific contributions include
vector field visualization, biomagnetic medical visualization,
pose estimation, visualization architectures, and parallel visualization.
Dr. Martin
received bachelor degrees in Physics and Computer Science from
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1990. He then joined General
Electric Corporate Research and Development as a member of the
Software Technology Program. During this program Dr. Martin
completed his masters degree in Electrical & Computer Systems
Engineering at Rensselaer with a thesis on abnormality detection
for cutting tool fault prediction. In 1998 Dr. Martin completed
his Ph.D. in Computer Science at Rensselaer with his thesis
titled “Image Guided Borescope Tip Pose Determination”.
This thesis combines the fields of Computer Graphics and Computer
Vision to address model based pose estimation. Dr Martin has
received several Whitney awards for technical achievement and
is a reviewer for IEEE.
