  • Biography

    Lalit Manam earned his Ph.D. from Indian Institute of Science in 2025, where he worked on structure from motion (SfM), a fundamental approach in 3D computer vision. His doctoral research was focused on efficient and reliable camera motion estimation. At MERL, he continues to explore related problems in 3D computer vision like simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) and their applications.
