Ehsan Sayyad is a Senior Applied Scientist in computer graphics with nine years of experience building ML-driven tools for 3D environments, currently shaping visual systems at Blizzard Entertainment. He specializes in generative models for 3D, intelligent interactive tools for AR/VR reconstruction, and studying user behavior and locomotion in XR—skills grounded in a Ph.D. from UC Santa Barbara. His research spans semantic inpainting, voxel-based text-to-3D generation, synthetic data for 3D reconstruction, and aerial image-to-3D synthesis using GANs, blending creative design thinking from an earlier Industrial Design master’s with rigorous ML methods. Ehsan has field-tested systems in wide-area AR studies and immersive VR reconstruction workflows, giving him a rare combination of lab research and production relevance. Based in Goleta, CA, he’s a self-described “3D enthusiast” who brings curiosity about interaction between humans and virtual spaces to large-scale game and graphics problems. Notably, his background in chemistry and industrial design informs a multidisciplinary approach to visual computing and user-centered XR tools.
