Toby Breckon is Professor of Computer Vision, and Head of Visual Computing, at Durham University (UK) where he leads 'visual AI' research spanning sensing for autonomous road vehicles, robotic perception, automated visual surveillance and security X-ray image understanding with a strong emphasis on generalized machine learning and pattern recognition techniques. Work from his research team has had significant impact within aviation security where it helps secure 500+ million passengers per annum globally, within multi-modal wide-area surveillance (UK SAPIENT programme - British Standard Flex 355) and in anomaly detection with COSMONiO, a product-based startup company founded by former members of his research team, that was acquired by Intel in 2020. He received the Royal Photographic Society Selwyn Award for early-career contribution to imaging science (2011) whilst his algorithmic contributions to global aviation security are recognised by the Royal Photographic Society Award for Imaging Science (2024). Prof. Breckon holds a PhD in 3D Computer Vision from the University of Edinburgh and is a Chartered Engineer, Chartered Scientist and Fellow of both the British Computer Society (FBCS) and Institute for Engineering & Technology (FIET) in addition to being an Accredited Senior Imaging Scientist and Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society (ASIS FRPS).
