David Moreno Lumbreras, PhD

Postdoctoral Researcher @ URJC

Welcome to my personal page! You'll find here information about me and what I do.

About Me

I hold a Ph.D. in Information Technologies and Systems from Universidad Rey Juan Carlos. (Link to my thesis). Prior to that, I obtained a Bachelor's degree in Telecommunications Engineering and a Master's degree in Telecommunications Engineering.

I specialize in web development, with a strong focus on Extended Reality (XR) and data/software visualization. Prior to this, I gained experience in the industry as a front-end developer and also in backend development using Python, particularly with Django. Additionally, I'm passionate about sharing knowledge and actively contribute to open-source software projects.

In addition to my tech interests, I love VR, motorbikes, creating gadgets using my 3D printer and tinkering with electronics components like Arduino and Raspberry Pi. Gaming is another passion of mine, spanning from video games (check out my game blog) to retro games (from NES to PSX, not venturing beyond or below that era), and I am an avid board game enthusiast. And I'm also trying to get back to read books (check out my books blog). I find great joy in combining these hobbies with a good cup of coffee or a refreshing beer!

BabiaXR

BabiaXR is a project to create HTML-based 3-D data visualizations suitable for use in XR (virtual reality, extended reality) scenes within the browser. BabiaXR is built on A-Frame and other JavaScript modules (including Three.js), and aims to easy of use and easy integration with other A-Frame components.

Kibana & ElasticSearch Community

Kibana is data visualization plugin for Elasticsearch. It provides visualization capabilities on top of the content indexed on an Elasticsearch cluster. I've contributed to this community, I've developed many plugins of Kibana in order to get new visualizations types and I am always thinking about more plugins.
