Rick Cavallaro


Rick Cavallaro currently serves as Chief Scientist for Sportvision. Rick has received 25 patents and an Emmy for his work developing computer graphic enhancements for sport broadcasts (such as the yellow first down line and the virtual strike zone).

Rick received a B.S.A.E. from GA Tech in 1984 and an M.S.A.E. from UCLA in 1988. After working in aerospace for several years, Rick lost his way and ended up at three different silicon valley start-ups.

Aviation and aerodynamics are now a passion, but no longer a vocation. Rick is an avid pilot of hang gliders and paragliders, and spends as much time as possible kitesurfing.
