Avinash Kak (born in Srinagar, Kashmir on 22 October 1944) is a professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University who has done pioneering research in image processing, tomography, computer vision, and computer languages.
His research on machine vision and robotics is based on the credo that sensory intelligence for machines must be demonstrated using real data, since practically anything can be shown to work with synthetic data. His laboratory has performed research on sensory intelligence for the machines of the future by considering 3D object recognition, vision-guided navigation for indoor mobile robots, and task and assembly planning.
