David Joseph Murphy
Researcher, Mixed RealityNRC Helsinki
Background
I started as an NRC Helsinki trainee during the summer of 2003, and joined the software lab full time in August 2004, after getting my Bachelors in (computer) engineering from Trinity College Dublin (University of Dublin). After giving the noodles and frozen pizza lifestyle a break for a while, I returned to part-time studentdom in autumn 2006 as an Information and Computer Science student at Helsinki University of Technology (now Aalto University).
I am currently a Mixed Reality Researcher with the Mixed Reality Solutions program at NRC Helsinki, Finland.
Research Interests
Mobile Mixed and Augmented Reality
Mobile Augmented Reality Applications
Mixed Reality User Interfaces
Research Projects
I worked on client development and concept prototyping on Nokia City Scene, a mixed reality "Mirror World" browser, allowing users to browse a 3D replica of the world on mobile and desktop.
I worked on the Mobile Augmented Reality client that complimented the Image Space Mixed Reality Social Media Sharing Service. The service is now in public beta.
Mobile Augmented Reality (MARA)
I worked on mobile-device based augmented reality from August 2004 until June 2007, with the MARA project (formerly "Virtual View"). Somehow the (outdoor) testing phase always seemed to happen in December. It was picked up by MIT Technology Review magazine, who selected it as one of their ten emerging technologies from 2007.
I worked on web client development for the Nokia Tej business service, while it was in the experimental phase in NRC with the Self Provisioned Services Team.
A meta-data based personal visual content management system which got some good press for it's cell-id based geo-tagging, bluetooth tagging, and easy internet uploading.
