Smith is Professor in Computer Simulation and Machine Vision at the School of Engineering at the University of the West of England.[4] He is also Director of the Centre for Machine Vision at the Bristol Robotics Laboratory.[5]
He has developed a technique for the simulation of the packing densities of particles with irregular morphologies.[6]
He helped develop 3D face recognition technology which he said was "on the verge of becoming really big" in 2017.[7][8]
Smith has been involved in plans to replace turnstiles on the London Underground with a facial recognition system.[9] He said that facial recognition technology under development could replace train tickets, and have applications in stores, train stations and banks.[10]
