Currently developing some revolutionary electronic displays on behalf of Amazon.

Developed revolutionary electronic display systems, image capture systems, and image processing algorithms that are having momentous impact on Samsung’s mobile phone, tablet, and TV product lines.Primary Functions:• Invented new human-vision based technologies to reduce power, lower cost, and improve image quality in electronic display systems and image capture systems.• Wrote software to model and simulate new algorithms.• Led hardware engineers to implement new algorithms into hardware.• Created all project proposals, and wrote and presented detailed technical reports on algorithms, software and hardware implementations, and simulation results.• Led efforts to revise and tune new technologies for Samsung’s display and system production.

Key Accomplishments:• Co-invented and developed high resolution PenTile™ display technology that has enabled Samsung to ship hundreds of millions of Galaxy and Note products. • Designed special OLED low-power mode sub-pixel rendering algorithms used commercially in all of Samsung OLED displays.• Designed PenTile RGBW Dynamic Backlight Control, RGBW Gamut Mapping, RGBW Post-scaling, and Display System Brightness Control algorithms, which enabled a new class of display that is unrivaled in power savings without image quality loss or simultaneous contrast errors. These are now shipping in high volumes in WQXGA Tablets, 4K laptops, and 4K TVs.• Designed a new class of human-vision based image compression algorithms surpassing all previous efforts by Samsung and their partners. These are currently being integrated into the next generation Applications Processors and Display Driver ICs and may have ubiquitous impact across all Samsung product-lines.• Designed a reconfigurable display engine to optimally support state-of-the-art image processing and power saving functionality and all variants of OLED and LCD displays. • Designed high performance algorithms for RGBW TV products. • Successfully completed a highly ambitious project to create a multi-primary display with 135% color-gamut and 25% power consumption using a hybrid field-sequential and color filter approach that was free from color breakup artifacts. • Designed novel RGBW camera sensor configurations for improved SNR and ultra-low-light performance. • Designed a slim camera path to efficiently demosaic and process RAW camera data for direct communication to the display engine, bypassing the ISP. • Designed image capture noise models, probability models, and high-speed multi-shot registration algorithms to enable the image capture of resolutions higher than the sensor array. • Designed a low-cost temporal algorithm that re-distributes spatial pixel energies to render dead-pixels invisible.

When Clairvoyante was in startup mode, developed PenTile technology and accelerated adoption by establishing key supply chain partnerships with flat panel display manufacturers, IC suppliers, and mobile phone OEMs.• Developed key Gamut Mapping Algorithms (GMA) and Dynamic Backlight Control (DBLC) algorithms referred to as PenTile RGBW DBLC technology that positioned Clairvoyante for growth in the RGBW display space. • Led joint development and evaluation projects with IC suppliers, display suppliers, and top-tier mobile phone OEMs such as Nokia and Motorola. The OEMs established critical “pull-through” demand to drive the royalty licensing model.• Developed all technology demonstrations and collateral materials used to position PenTile technology products.

Defined IC products, led product development, defined key supply chain partners, and led technical sales team in gaining initial leadership positions in world’s first Bluetooth solutions.

Developed product roadmaps and growth strategies for $100M consumer microelectronics business.

Managed the program development for five DSP-based product development teams using industry-prevalent XPReS process.

Defined and specified the development of IC products for set top box and cable-modem markets.Leveraged legacy DSP cores and teams of hardware and software engineers to create new low-cost, high performance consumer products such as digital answering machines, caller ID/speakerphone/answering sub-systems, and cordless phones.

Designed core blocks for MPEG2 decoder, QAM/QPSK/VSB demodulator, and video display engine.

Designed core blocks in the extremely successful mach64 graphics controller.
