Michael Theodore Eismann (born 1964) is an American scientist and researcher working at the Air Force Research Laboratory. He is a former editor of Optical Engineering and a member of the NATO Sensors and Electronics Technology panel. In 2023, Eismann was elevated to fellow membership of the IEEE.

Education and early life

Eismann was born in 1964 in

Georgia Institute of Technology.[1] Eismann received a PhD in Electro-Optics from the University of Dayton, Ohio, in 2004, overseen by Russell Craig Hardie.[2][3][4][1] His dissertation was Resolution enhancement of hyperspectral imagery using maximum a posteriori estimation with a stochastic mixing model.[5]

Career

Eismann is Chief Scientist at the Sensors Directorate of the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), being promoted in December 2014.

infrared imaging and hyperspectral remote sensing, areas which he is considered an authority on in the scientific community.[3][7] Eismann has authored multiple journal articles and book chapters on these areas. Eismann is also an Adjunct Professor at the Air Force Institute of Technology.[4][7][1]

Eismann's previous work includes time at the

Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE) Board of Directors.[5][3] He served some time as Editor-in-Chief of the journal Optical Engineering, succeeding Ronald Driggers.[3] He was in the position from 2014-2020.[8]
