About

I completed my DPhil thesis in the Mobile Robotics Group at Oxford, working on place recognition and appearance based navigation.  My advisor was Paul Newman, and the algorithm we developed is called FAB-MAP.

Since finishing, I co-founded a start-up company called Plink, together with James Philbin, which developed visual search engine technology. Our PlinkArt app allowed users to identify a painting just by taking a picture of it with their mobile phone. Plink was acquired by Google in April 2010. I now work on the Goggle Goggles team, developing Google's computer vision systems.
