Biography

Lindsay works in the Department of Electrical and Computer Systems Engineering at Monash University as an Associate Professor.  He is Deputy Head of Department and Director of Teaching and has over 100 refereed publications in the areas of robotics, sensing, bionic vision and computer systems.

Lindsay Kleeman received a B.E. in Electrical Engineering in 1982 and B.Math in 1983 both with first class honours and university medals, from the University of Newcastle, Australia.  In 1984 he was the IEEE Centennial student, representing region 10.  He received the Ph.D. degree in Computer Engineering in 1987 under the supervision of Tony Cantoni, also at the University of Newcastle. 

In 1986, Lindsay was appointed as a lecturer in the Department of Electrical and Computer Systems Engineering at Monash University, was promoted to senior lecturer in 1992, and associate professor in 1999.  He was president of the Computer Chapter of the IEEE Victorian Section from 1990 to 1991.  In 1993 and 2001 he took study leave at Yale University and Lulea University.   He has served as Deputy Head of Department since 2007 and been director of Teaching within the Department with the job of allocating teaching and administration duties.  In 2003 he instigated and helped develop the academic workload model used in the Faculty of Engineering today.  His research interests include navigation and sonar sensing for robotics, computer engineering, real time computer vision and digital logic design and he established undergraduate units in these areas.  In particular he established new core and electives units in real time embedded systems, large scale digital design and Hardware Description Languages.

Lindsay was the first single author winner of the Y200,000 Nakamura prize for the best paper at the Intelligent Robots and Systems Conference in 1999 (IROS’99) for a paper entitled "Fast and accurate sonar trackers using double pulse coding".   He also won the Dean of Engineering Excellence Award for Research in 2005.  He has supervised award winning PhDs, such as Albert Diosi whose thesis “Laser rangefinder and advanced sonar based simultaneous localisation and mapping for mobile robots” won the Douglas Lampard Medal in 2006, and Alan Zhang who won the best student paper prize at ACRA 2007 for a paper entitled “Robust Appearance Based Visual Route Following in Large Scale Outdoor Environments”.  In 2006 Springer published a book authored with another PhD student, Geoffrey Taylor, entitled ”Visual Perception and Robotic Manipulation: 3D Object Recognition, Tracking and Hand-eye Coordination”.  He has supervised to completion 11 PhDs and published over 100 refereed journal and conference papers.  More recently he leads a group within the $8M ARC funded Bionic Eye project at Monash University developing real time image processing algorithms.
