Dr. Ronald Müller boasts over two decades of expertise in the global Imaging market. His passion for the diverse applications of this technology began well before he earned his doctorate in Computer Vision and Machine Learning. Since 2014, Dr. Müller has been driving the growth of ambitious companies in the Imaging industry, worldwide. As Managing Partner of Vision Markets he established the leading management consulting firm with four synergistic service areas: Strategy, M&A, Marketing, and Recruitment.
In addition to his consultancy work, Dr. Müller is an active contributor to the global vision community. He is a sought-after speaker at industry conferences, a regular author in trade publications, and serves on the Board of Directors of the EMVA, the Advisory Board of the Image Sensors conference, and several innovation award juries.
Sara Pellegrini is a pixel architect leading the advanced photonics sensors technology development activities in STMicroelectronics’ centre of competence for imaging in Edinburgh. In this role she works in close collaboration with the silicon, process, module and system R&D teams to define and develop the Imaging Division photonics pixel roadmap and specification. In addition to this she works with external collaborators on several R&D projects within STMicroelectronics’ Imaging PhD Programme.
Sara graduated in Electronics Engineering at the Politecnico di Milano in 1999 and received her PhD in Physics from Heriot-Watt University in 2006. She has authored and presented several papers on SPAD and SPAD-based systems and applications
Abhinav Agarwal is currently a Member of Technical Staff with Forza Silicon (Ametek Inc.) and was instrumental in recently establishing a Forza India design center in Bangalore. He is a technical lead for various CMOS image sensors chips designed at Forza Silicon in applications ranging from cinematography, automotive and biomedical. As a lead author, he has presented papers at several prominent conferences like the International Image Sensor Workshop (IISW), IEEE VLSI Symposium on Circuits and Technology. He received the best student paper award at the IEEE Custom Integrated Circuits Conference in 2020. Abhinav is also passionate about improving the design and verification flows related to CMOS Image Sensors and has presented multiple collaborative articles with Siemens EDA at the Design Automation Conference (DAC). Prior to his role Forza, Abhinav was graduate researcher at Caltech working in implantable medical devices resulting in several US patents.
As a dedicated "Principal" ZEISS expert, Markus Cappellaro follows the trends in image sensors technology from the customer and user perspective for a wide range of applications in light microscopy. It stretches from documentation in routine applications to scientific imaging at the highest level. This is his basis for his many years as product manager for digital camera systems at Carl Zeiss Microscopy, where he is responsible for a complete digital camera portfolio. He holds a degree in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology from the Technical University of Munich and loves sports fencing as one of his favorite pastimes because, like his job, it requires precision, speed and strategy.
Since 2011, Vladimir Koifman is CTO of Analog Value Ltd. developing new approaches in image sensor design. Prior to that, in 2004, Vladimir co-founded Advasense image sensor company acquired by Pixim, and, later, by Sony. Prior to that, he co-founded AMCC Israel analog design center. In 90s, Vladimir worked for Motorola Semiconductor, developing mixed signal processors for the company's mobile phones. Vladimir has authored 10 papers and received over 50 patents. Among his other activities, Vladimir maintains Image Sensors World blog over the last 10 years.
Robert Henderson is a Professor of Electronic Imaging in the School of Engineering at the University of Edinburgh. He obtained his PhD in 1990 from the University of Glasgow. From 1991, he was a research engineer at the Swiss Centre for Microelectronics, Neuchatel, Switzerland. In 1996, he was appointed senior VLSI engineer at VLSI Vision Ltd, Edinburgh, UK where he worked on the world’s first single chip video camera. From 2000, as principal VLSI engineer in STMicroelectronics Imaging Division he developed image sensors for mobile phone applications. He joined University of Edinburgh in 2005, designing the first SPAD image sensors in nanometer CMOS technologies in the MegaFrame and SPADnet EU projects. This research activity led to the first volume SPAD time-of-flight products in 2013 in the form of STMicroelectronics Flightsense series which perform an autofocus assist function in more than 150 different smartphone models, recently passing the 1 billion module milestone. He benefits from a long term research partnership with STMIcroelectronics in which he explores medical, scientific and high speed imaging applications of SPAD technology. In 2014, he was awarded a prestigious ERC advanced fellowship. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh.
