3D auto-stereoscopy: the next frontier

Dr Ulrich Leiner is heading the department Interactive Media and Human Factors at the Fraunhofer Heinrich-Hertz-Institute in Berlin. The team is focused on new and intuitive man-machine interfaces, such as autostereoscopic 3D display technologies and touch-less interaction systems. His presentation was made at the 2nd Blu-ray Disc Academy 3D conference, Hamburg, 3-4 May 2011.

Ulrich holds a PhD in applied mathematics from Technical University of Munich on optimal control problems in robotics. He started as a research scientist at Siemens Corporate Technology working on human-machine interaction topics including computer-generated animations, GUI, multimodality, usability and ergonomics. Later at Siemens Mobile and BenQ, Ulrich managed the user experience department for mobile phones and fixed network devices, being responsible for the user interface solutions of over 100 million phones.
