Computer graphics; Computer-aided geometric design and modeling

Brian A. Barsky is Professor of Computer Science and Affiliate Professor of Optometry and Vision Science at the University of California at Berkeley. He is a member of the Bioengineering Graduate Group, an interdisciplinary and inter-campus program, between UC Berkeley and UC San Francisco.

His research interests include computer aided geometric design and modeling, interactive three-dimensional computer graphics, visualization in scientific computing, computer aided cornea modeling and visualization, medical imaging, and virtual environments for surgical simulation.

He has been working in spline curve/surface representation and their applications in computer graphics and geometric modeling for many years. He is applying his knowledge of curve/surface representations as well as his computer graphics experience toimproving videokeratography and corneal topographic mapping, forming a mathematical model of the cornea, providing computer visualization of patients' corneas to clinicians, and developing new techniques for contact lens design and fabrication. This research forms the OPTICAL (OPtics and Topography Involving Cornea and Lens) project.
