Shahram Izadi is a British-Iranian computer scientist known for his work in augmented reality, computer vision, human-computer interaction, and artificial intelligence.[1]

Izadi earned his PhD from the University of Nottingham in 2004, where his research focused on natural user interface and augmented reality. He worked at Xerox PARC from 2000 to 2002 on ubiquitous computing.[2][3][4] Izadi joined Microsoft Research in 2005, where he worked on developing technologies such as Kinect, KinectFusion, HoloLens, SecondLight, Kinect One and Holoportation.[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]

In 2017, Izadi co-founded PerceptiveIO, a startup focused on computer vision and artificial intelligence for AR/VR.[13][14] The company was acquired by Google, where Izadi became General Manager of the AR/XR division.[15][16][17]

Izadi is known for his research in human-computer interaction, computer vision, augmented reality, machine learning, and gesture recognition.[18] He has authored approximately 120 research papers.[19] He is a Fellow of IEEE and ACM.[1][20]

In 2009, he was named to MIT Technology Review's TR35 list.[21][22]
