Thursday, January 15, 2015

Robert Bridson (BMath '98, MMath '99) has been awarded a Science and Technical Academy Award for "early conceptualization of sparse-tiled voxel data structures and their application to modeling and simulation."

"Robert Bridson's pioneering work on voxel data structures and its subsequent validation in fluid simulation tools have had a significant impact on the design of volumetric tools throughout the visual effects industry," stated a news release on the Academy Awards website.

Currently, Bridson is an adjunct professor at the University of British Columbia and a senior principal research scientist for visual effects at Autodesk.
