Dr. Yitzhak Weissman received his Ph.D. degree from Tel Aviv University in 1981. Since then, his career interleaved scientific and applied research.
During his academic activity, Dr. Weissman published over 30 scientific papers and two books: "Optical Network Theory" in 1991, and "Lenticular Imaging" in 2018. The subjects of his publications include solid-state physics, quantum mechanics, optical fibers, infra-red technology, optical noise, optical engineering, and heat transfer. Dr. Weissman spent two sabbatical periods in the US: in the UC Berkeley Chemistry Department in 1981 as a post-doctoral fellow, and in the University of Utah Electrical Engineering Department in 1991 as a visiting Professor.
Dr. Weissman's passion for innovation and entrepreneurship has led him to participate in numerous start-up projects, which included the development of fiber-optic sensors, infra-red spectroscopy instrumentation, simulator displays, optically efficient polarizers for projection 3D displays, diamond color grading, and lenticular print.
Dr. Weissman's involvement in 3D visualization started with stereo photography. His lenticular printing service of stereo photographs became very popular among stereo photographers around the world. The work on lenticular stereo pictures led him to the study of 3D lenticular imaging, which is documented in his book "Lenticular Imaging."
The work on this subject shifted Dr. Weissman's attention to the more sophisticated 3D photography, and to a branch of 3D digital art called "Virtual Sculpture." Nowadays, he is an active artist in these fields.
Dr. Weissman was born in Poland in 1949. In 1957 he immigrated with his family to Israel. He is married, has two children, and lives in Herzliya, Israel.
