Research Areas

I am deeply interested in Heritage. “Computer Analysis of Bharatanatyam Dance” is an exciting research project that I initiated few years back. We capture the dance with Kinect and then perform various audio, video, motion, and human-movement analyses to recognise the forms. It is wonderful to work with the experts from a different universe.

While at the industry, I observed critical lacunae in the working of our young developers which lead to poor work quality and low productivity. In India, we have quantity – we do not have quality. Leveraging recent advances in sensor (Eye-Gaze Tracking) and processor (dynamic instrumentation) technology, I am trying to build tools for quality and productivity estimation and enhancement.

With my Director, I lead the “National Digital Library of India” Project of NMEICT, MHRD. We are building an educational portal for all students of India. Very soon this will become the de-facto platform for e-Contents and e-Learning in India. In this connection I take up various research problems in Technology-Enabled Education.
