Charlie Hewitt is a Senior Research Engineer with an MEng from the University of Cambridge and over a decade of experience at the intersection of computer graphics, computer vision and machine learning. He has driven research and prototyping across industry leaders—most recently developing synthetic data for human-centric perception on Android XR at Google after multi-year research roles at Microsoft’s Mixed Reality & AI Labs. His background spans holographic near-eye displays, immersive stereoscopic video, and tooling for 3D animation pipelines, with contributions that include work leading to patents in holographic display systems. Based in Cambridge, he combines rigorous academic training with hands-on systems and product-facing research, often moving lab ideas into practical prototypes for mixed-reality hardware. An industrious collaborator, he frequently operates at the boundary of perception algorithms and rendering, bringing both algorithmic depth and implementation pragmatism to complex AR/VR problems.
