Victor Manuel Brea Sánchez is a Professor at the University of Santiago de Compostela , affiliated with the Department of Electronics and Computing within the Higher Technical School of Engineering . He holds a PhD from the same university, completing his thesis on Design of a mixed-signal CMOS integrated circuit for pixel-level snakes in 2003 under the guidance of Dr. Diego Cabello Ferrer and Dr. David López Vilariño. His research focuses on Computer Vision , CMOS Sensors , and Embedded Systems , with particular emphasis on real-time vision systems , time-of-flight imaging , and deep learning . He leads the Artificial Vision research group and contributes to the Center for Research in Intelligent Technologies (CITIUS) . His recent work includes advancements in high dynamic range vision sensors , event-based cameras , and analog computing-in-memory architectures . He has pioneered energy-efficient algorithms for multi-object tracking and small object detection in videos, often implemented on low-power embedded systems. Key contributions include the HOPBAS10K CMOS vision sensor for background subtraction and the STDnet convolutional neural network for small target detection. His research bridges hardware design (e.g., CMOS sensor architectures) with software (e.g., deep learning algorithms), emphasizing algorithm-hardware co-design for real-world applications like traffic monitoring and biomedical systems. Notable projects include the iCaveats initiative integrating vision architectures for embedded systems and a low-power voltage reference circuit for implantable devices. He has also developed a capacitance-based wireless sensor network for agricultural pest monitoring.
