Welcome

 

I am member of the Scientific Visualization and Computer Graphics research group within the Department of Mathematics and Computing Science of the University of Groningen.

My research focuses on computer graphics and, specifically, non-photorealistic (NPR) and illustrative rendering. These techniques are being applied to problems in visualization and illustration. I also look into interaction techniques for working with these rendering techniques in the mentioned domains. In particular, I am interested in interaction techniques for work with illustrative visualizations on large, touch-sensitive displays.
