For Episode 9, we welcome an AI researcher and entrepreneur who has been on a remarkable journey, Flora Tasse. She grew up in Cameroon, where she completed her Bachelors in Mathematics at the University of Buea.  She received a second Bachelors and a Masters in Computer Science at Rhodes and Cape Town in South Africa. She then went on to the UK, and earned her PhD in 3D computer vision at Cambridge, as well as interning at Microsoft and Google.  Rather than joining a tech giant, Flora decided instead to found her own company Selerio, pioneering the commercialization of Artificial Intelligence and Augmented Reality. Selerio got acquired by Streem. where she’s now leading the AI Research team. Streem offers AI and AR-powered communications, bringing AI to the frontlines of customer service.  Pieter and Flora also discuss her personal experience with the lack of diversity in AI and her work with organizations like Black in AI to improve inclusivity.

Today we conclude our CVPR coverage joined by Flora Tasse, Head of Computer Vision &amp; AI Research at Streem. Flora, a keynote speaker at the AR/VR workshop, walks us through some of the interesting use cases at the intersection of AI, CV, and AR technologies, her current work and the origin of her company Selerio, which was eventually acquired by Streem, the difficulties associated with building 3D mesh environments, extracting metadata from those environments, the challenges of pose estimation and more.
