Christophe Dehais is a research engineer with 19 years' experience specializing in computer vision and real-time computer graphics, currently serving as Chargé de Recherches in the Toulouse area. He develops and integrates practical solutions for face tracking, hair segmentation, 3D mesh compression and calibration pipelines, and has brought physically based rendering and real-time ray-traced refraction into a production 3D engine. His background combines a PhD in computer vision with years of teaching and supervising research, reflecting strong ties between academic rigor and product-focused engineering. An active contributor to the widely used bgfx rendering library, he improves cross-platform shader and WebGL compatibility—an indicator of his hands-on graphics systems expertise. Colleagues value his ability to bridge geometric/colorimetric calibration, real-time performance constraints, and state-of-the-art rendering for optical products like eyewear.
