Andrew Lauritzen

I am currently a software engineer on the Advanced Rendering Technology team at Intel. Before that, I received my M.Math in computer science from the University of Waterloo in 2008 where my research was focused on variance shadow maps and other shadow filtering algorithms. My research interests include lighting and shadowing algorithms, deferred rendering, parallel programming languages and graphics hardware architectures.
