Summary
Daniele Giunchi is an Assistant Professor and HCI researcher with 12 years of experience bridging computer vision, XR, robotics and software engineering. He combines a strong academic background (PhD, Marie Curie fellowship) with industry-hardened development across biomedical, aerospace and surgical imaging systems, bringing expertise in deep learning, real-time graphics and model-based design. At UCL and now University of Birmingham he has supervised and taught across advanced topics from computational photography to reinforcement learning while contributing to XR curricula and research councils. Comfortable in C/C++, Python, TensorFlow/PyTorch and VR toolchains, he pairs rigorous experimental research with practical system-building—having shipped safety-critical UAV and medical applications earlier in his career. An astronomer and quantum-information enthusiast by training, he brings a rare cross-disciplinary perspective that informs his work on perceptual models and interactive AI in immersive environments.
