Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolOlivier Braun is a co-founder and product specialist with over a decade building stereo vision and 3D depth sensing technology at Stereolabs, helping machines from robots to cars perceive and understand their environments. With an M.Sc. in Optics from Institut d'Optique and early industrial experience at Renault, he blends rigorous optical science with practical product engineering. He contributes hands-on to core SDK development—implementing CUDA/OpenGL interop and GPU-accelerated computer vision features in the widely used ZED SDK. Olivier bridges research and productization, turning advanced stereo vision algorithms into developer-friendly tools and real-world devices. Based in Greater Paris, he pairs entrepreneurial drive with low-level GPU expertise, a combination that speeds adoption of spatial perception across robotics and embedded systems.
