Dr David Liebowitz leads Mediaware's engineering team. David has a background in computer vision research and commercialization, particularly in a small business context. Following a computer vision doctorate at the University of Oxford, he spent a year a guest researcher in the Computational Vision and Active Perception Laboratory of the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, where he co-developed and patented a camera calibration method for video motion capture. Moving to Australia in 2001, he served as Senior Research Scientist for the HMI company Seeing Machines, leaving in 2003 to co-found consulting company Visual Geometry Solutions with colleagues in Oxford. As a consultant he worked on varied projects in such areas as video processing, industrial machine vision, machine learning for cancer diagnosis and fault detection. David followed a consulting role for Mediaware by joining the company in 2005 to lead work on a Capability and Technology Demonstrator, a two year Australian defence contract to develop video exploitation technology for airborne intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance.
