Senior🎓
Top SchoolChinmay Chinara is a research-driven software engineer with nine years of experience building open-source scientific and mixed-reality tools, currently contributing to Brainstorm at USC Viterbi’s Biomedical Imaging Lab. He has deep expertise in computer vision, facial capture, and AR/VR systems—having developed an open Unity SDK for realistic hand interactions and advanced head-mounted facial capture pipelines showcased at HCII. His work spans applied research and production: optimizing real-time monocular occlusion/depth networks, training non-linear morphable face models from Light Stage scans, and integrating ML inference into interactive frameworks. Comfortable across MATLAB/Simulink, Unity, deep learning, and systems engineering, he pairs academic rigor from USC’s M.S. program with hands-on deployment experience in multimodal research labs. Notably, he bridges sensor-constrained AR problems and practical SDK design, making cutting-edge research accessible to developers and clinicians.
