Dan (Danny) Halperin is an Israeli computer scientist known for his work on computational geometry and robotics. He is currently a Full Professor in the School of Computer Science at Tel Aviv University, and the CTO of Assembrix, a startup company in industrial 3D printing.

Halperin completed his Ph.D. at Tel Aviv University in 1992, under the supervision of Micha Sharir.[1] His dissertation was Algorithmic Motion Planning via Arrangements of Curves and of Surfaces.[2] He then spent three years as a research associate in the Computer Science Robotics Laboratory at Stanford University. He returned to Tel Aviv University as a faculty member in 1996[3], where he established the Computational Geometry Lab.

Halperin's main field of research is computational geometry and its applications, which include robotics, automated manufacturing, algorithmic

SoCG "test of time" award.[4] In CGAL he has been particularly active in the development of the 2D arrangements package, of which he has written a book.[5]

Halperin was named as an

IEEE Fellow in 2015, "for contributions to robust geometric algorithms for robotics and automation",[6] and is a distinguished lecturer of the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society.[7] He was named as a Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery in 2018, "for contributions to robust geometric computing and applications to robotics and automation".[8] He was a keynote speaker at the International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), the European Workshop on Computational Geometry (EuroCG), and the Workshop on the Algorithmic Foundations of Robotics (WAFR).
