Eric M. Meisner
I am a research scientists in the field of Robotics and Computer Vision. I was a Hartwell Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Computer Science at Johns Hopkins University (2010-2011). I completed the PhD in the Department of Computed Science at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 2009. I earned a B.S. in computer science from the University of Rochester in 2003.
