After the early years where sensors and interpolation algorithms improved to catch and surpass the resolution achievable with film, the development of white balance, color, and tone correction algorithms, and the inclusion of new focus technology, panoramic imaging, high dynamic range, and image stabilization have all combined to realize the promise and populatiry of computational photography.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Biography<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Dr. Paul M. Hubel has been a Imaging Architect at Apple, Inc. since 2008 where he works on color and image processing issues for digital photography and camera systems. Among other projects, his color correction methods have been used for all iOS images since the iPhone3S. From 2002-2008, Dr. Hubel worked on imaging solutions for high-end DSLR camera systems at Foveon, Inc. and before that he worked for ten years as a Principal Project Scientist at Hewlett-Packard Laboratories working on digital cameras, photofinishing, scanners, copiers, and printers. Prior to this, Dr. Hubel worked at the Rowland Institute for Science and then as a PostDoc/lecturer at MIT-Media Laboratory. Dr. Hubel received his B.Sc. in Optics from The University of Rochester in 1986, and his D.Phil. in Engineering from Oxford University in 1990 for his dissertation on Color Reflection Holography. Dr. Hubel has published many technical papers, book chapters, and authored over 50 patents.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><a href="http://www.apple.com/iphone/world-gallery/">http://www.apple.com/iphone/world-gallery/</a><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></div></div></body></html>
