About Me

David Li Profile Image

I am a Software Engineer in Google AR & VR. I have a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Maryland, College Park advised by Professor Amitabh Varshney. My research interests are in delivering immersive content with 360 videos and neural representations. Previously, I have also worked on projects involving VR data visualization (MeteoVis) and interactive 3D graphics (Geollery).
