Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolLukas Koestler is a co-founder and computer vision researcher with a decade of experience building perception systems at the intersection of 3D vision and language. Based in Munich, he co-founded SE3 Labs where SpatialGPT combines 3D scene understanding with natural language to answer complex spatial queries, drawing on PhD-level research with Prof. Daniel Cremers at TUM. His background includes applied research stints at NVIDIA and Tesla’s Autopilot team, plus industry work on autonomous driving and software development at BMW, giving him rare fluency in both academic rigor and production-scale systems. Lukas holds advanced mathematics and engineering degrees from TUM, École Polytechnique, ETH Zürich and exchanges at Notre Dame, and has a track record of teaching and mentoring across mathematical and computational courses. Colleagues describe him as someone who turns deep geometric insight into practical tools—an engineer who thinks in 3D and ships in the real world.
