Hello there,
I have been following the list for a while to be more familiar with the
project and certainly do care to introduce ;)
I'm Aniket Handa from the Jaypee Institute of Information Techonlogy,
INDIA. My area of interest mostly have been around Computer Graphics,
Vision and Image Processing. I am proficient in C/C++, Java, OpenGL, OpenCV
and can do justice to OpenMP, CUDA. I am comfortable with Windows, *nix(
sp. Mac OS X) and Android platforms.
I am currently going through all the Project Idea and meanwhile thinking of
mine. I found "New Cross-platform 3D Display Manager" (was thinking about
QVTK), "Generalized abstracted spacial partitioning capability" and last
but not the least "2D sketch editor" interesting, thought I don't want to
jump pre-maturely on the Ideas.
In the processes of "getting to know the code", it seems pretty likely I'll
come across some bug/optimization technique and would love to submit a
patch.
Looking forward to contribute to this awesome project.
Cheers!
Aniket
