• As part of a small team in London, I worked with PathTracing, Global Illumination, ReSTIR, Neural Rendering and many other techniques, in order to research, design and implement highly optimized novel rendering.
• I was assigned the task of using C++ & Tiny-CUDA to reimplement an application for neural network training that was originally implemented in Python & PyTorch. Because of the significant better performance of C++ &.

Aarhus, Denmark

• Designed and implemented the VRaptor system, which is a set of internal development tools that makes it easy to setup, reuse and share code components across projects.With every change to our shared code repositories.
• As a remote consultant I worked for Unity Technologies developing a geometry translation plug-in for the Rhino 3D application. This plug-in is capable of tesselating 3D surfaces defined by NURBS and send the result to.
• Working with the UnityEngine, I am part of many projects using advanced graphics rendering techniques and virtual reality based on HTC Vive, Oculus Quest, PicoNeo2 and Microsoft HoloLens.
• Carried out all software development of an inspirational WebGL project for Aarhus School of Architecture. See it here. https://perbloksgaard.dk/wda2020/

Copenhagen Area, Denmark

• For the Vistra visualization and training system, I developed a set of tools based on Machine learning that enabled the computer to understand how to position the virtual 3D camera for each operation in an assembly.
• Implemented a softbody dynamics system for simulating flexible objects such as wires and cables using C# and Unity. This softbody dynamics simulator uses a compute shader for the physical simulation and a realtime.
• Designed and developed an effective polygon reduction algorithm that can reduce the number of polygons in our CAD geometry by 60-65% without losing quality noticeably.

Copenhagen Area, Denmark

• Developed an advanced grouping system for working with multiple 3D objects in Cylindo's 3D planner software.
• Designed and implemented the GUICacheLayer software component which speeds up the rendering of the GUI by an order of magnitude in all Cylindo's Unity based software products.
• Implemented a number of best practice solutions in our software development process.
• Refactored some of the company's core software components using approved models, architectures and patterns.

Søren Frichs Vej 38C, 8230 Århus/Åbyhøj, Danmark

• For LEGO Systems I invented, designed and implemented the 3D rendering system called EdgeFx which will be used to render realtime 3D bricks in all visual applications for iOS, Android, Windows, OSX and also the.
• The EdgeFx rendering system was first used in LEGO's building instructions app which was released in December 2013.
• Developed an 3D application called BezierSplineEditor which contains tools for visualizing and modelling 3D LEGO bricks using Bezier Splines. This application was presented for LEGO's steering group as a candidate for.

• I single-handedly developed the KeyShotVR technology which has been patented by the company. (Patent number: Luxion / 8322.01-006) This technology makes it possible to interact with 3D models via the internet from all.
• Developed software plug-ins for both Windows and Mac which can convert 3D geometry from Autodesk Maya to Luxion's KeyShot 3D application.
• Responsible of the development of a user-friendly guide that can assist any non technical user to make the necessary choices to create KeyShotVR visualizations.

• Was part of the team that developed, tested and completed the software for Bang & Olufsen's BeoSound 5 Encore.
• Restructured two of the company's core software components which resulted in greater clarity and stability.
• Used remote debugging to discover and resolve multiple software issues on our target a PowerPC platform running Wind River Linux OS.

Mejlgade 51, 8000 Aarhus C

• Was the product owner and lead programmer of all releases of the company's primary software product: TurnToolBox. More than 300 companies all over the world have purchased a license for the TurnToolBox authoring tool.
• TurnTool ApS was in 2006 and 2007 awarded the status of Gazelle company meaning the turnover had doubled every year from 2002 to 2006.
• Responsible for developing the TurnTool Viewer which is the company's core software. The TurnTool Viewer gets installed about 150,000 times each month from computers worldwide. The TurnTool Viewer is a plug-in for the.
• Developed and maintained plug-ins for the following 3D applications: 3D Studio Max, Autodesk Viz, Cinema4D, ArchiCAD and MicroStation. Each of these plug-ins are included in the company's primary product TurnToolBox.
• Reacted to business demand and created the TurnTool SDK that can be used by third-party developers to make 3D files in TurnTool's 3D file format. Several international companies have purchased a license to the TurnTool.
• Carried through and managed the development of a 3D floorplan system called PlanEdit. PlanEdit was launched in 2007 on the website of the danish estate agency Home. PlanEdit became TurnTool's most profitable 3D solution.

Skolegade 19, 8000 Aarhus C

• Assisted company management to set new goals for the 3D engine after the company had taken over the Z3D technology from Pixeleers.
• I was part of a small development team that restructured the 3D engine to enable display of 3D content in a brower online. The 3D software technology was officially completed and ready for production in August 2001.

Skolegade 19, 8000 Aarhus C

• I was hired to develop a flexible 3D graphics engine in C++ that utilizes the GPU for the adventure game “It Came For Zog”. This 3D graphics engine was later named "The Z3D Engine".
• In November 1999 the company management decided to use the Z3D engine as the platform for their three games under development, which were “It Came For Zog”, “Aeropa: Fall of the Covenant” and “Thomas and Tim 3”.
