Edward Dowski is a joint inventor of Wavefront Coding technology and co-founded CDM Optics, Inc. in 1995. Dr. Dowski is currently President of CDM Optics and was instrumental in the merging of CDM Optics and OmniVision Technologies in 2005. Dr. Dowski has a broad range of technical experience ranging from radar systems to digital signal processing to imaging systems. He has been deeply involved in applying Wavefront Coding to a wide variety of applications areas including bar-code scanning, microscopy, endoscopy, biometrics, and miniature cameras. CDM Optics and Omnivision Technologies are developing the next generations of imaging technologies that use novel optics and innovative algorithms to transform the essential task of forming images from an opto-mechanical process to one of optical encoding and signal processing. By eliminating motors and actuators, the technology significantly reduces the size and complexity of the auto-focus function on a camera module. Dr. Dowski has been widely published and holds over 60 granted and pending patents. He has been invited to speak at national and international optical design conferences including SPIE Defense and Security, International Congress of Imaging Science, and Imaging Science and Technology. |
