Peter Meijer Email & Phone Number

I am a researcher with a broad interest in mobile vision technologies, computer vision, neural networks, brain plasticity, modeling and simulation, sensory substitution, brain-computer interfaces, and disruptive technologies in general - especially in the area of healthcare. I much enjoy working with - and learning from - multidisciplinary research teams that are recognized global leaders in their respective fields.I have done sputtering, vapor deposition, submicron photolithography and cryogenic work (Delft University, MSc Physics 1985). While at Philips Research (1985-2006) I developed new techniques for highly nonlinear multivariate modeling, including generalized dynamic neural networks (PhD 2006) for use in time and frequency domain, and developed a hot carrier simulator. At NXP Semiconductors (2006-2010) I worked on massively parallel image processing and on image enhancement algorithms for DTV.At Hemics (2011-2018) I worked on classification and visualization of inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis, based on hemodynamic response modeling from diffuse optical transmission measurements. This work spans medical imaging, image processing, algorithm development, medical image analysis, machine learning and multivariate modeling. I developed and implemented the algorithms used in the Hemics HandScan medical device, and continued this line of work at Demcon Hemics (2018-2019). Since 2019, my roles at Demcon include that of data scientist, artificial intelligence engineer, algorithm designer and image processing specialist.In parallel with the above I invented and developed "The vOICe", a sensory substitution technology that enables blind people to see live camera views through sound, nowadays also used as a research vehicle in neuroscience (e.g., crossmodal plasticity). Latest implementations include an augmented reality app for Android devices and a platform-independent progressive web app (PWA). A blind user of The vOICe smart glasses won Neurothlon 2018, beating two blind Argus II retinal implant recipients.Curriculum Vitae (latest version):https://www.seeingwithsound.com/extra/CV_Meijer_PBL.pdf
