Dr Andrzej Kaczorowski

Technologist and inventor at heart, Andrzej’s mission is to create innovative technology.  Andrzej enjoys the whole process of bringing inventions to life, from the inception of an idea to proving the prototype that demonstrates cutting-edge functionality.

 

From a young age, Andrzej was fascinated by the operation of complex devices and systems. To the dread of his parents, he was regularly found disassembling household appliances. This curiosity and passion for learning led him to pursue BSc in Physics and Computer Science at King’s College London followed by MRes (Master’s of Research) and a PhD in Photonic Systems Development from the University of Cambridge.

 

Andrzej’s PhD, where he specialised in Computer-Generated Holography for displays, managed to bridge his multiple passions: programming, computer graphics, photography, automation and algorithm design. The insights from his PhD and a decade of technical experience, led to the co-founding of deep-tech software start-up VividQ, which is on the path to revolutionise display technology.

 

He has always kept a range of broad interests, which over the years resulted in a breadth of knowledge spanning multiple disciplines: Physics, Computer Science, Engineering, Optics, Photonics, Computer-Generated Holography and Augmented/Mixed Reality.

Authoring over 10 publications and patents, Andrzej shares his knowledge and expertise with researchers and technology enthusiasts all over the world. He is a frequent speaker at renowned industry events, such as SPIE AR|VR|MR, SPIE Photonics Europe, SID EuroDisplay. A science populariser with a natural ability to explain complex scientific terms, he has given talks to non-technical audiences including Science. Polish Perspectives, TEDxWarsaw, and Norwich LoveLight Festival.

 

Andrzej believes that education is essential to the growth of society. He has mentored and coached numerous researchers and supervised tens of student projects. In his spare time, he continuously works to maintain and expand his hands-on capabilities, he automates his house and explores topics of IoT and smart homes. His curious and creative nature extends to his love for adventure, travelling, photography, music and discovering new places.
