His work explores interactive visualization and high performance computing in support of applications for the Army Research Laboratory. Currently, he leverages Parallel Evaluation of advances in massively parallel computing architectures and interactive ray tracing to solve a variety of physics‐based simulation problems in domains such as ballistic vulnerability analysis, radio frequency propagation, and soft-­body simulation. Prior to joining SURVICE in 2012, Amstutz was a student in the Department of Computer Science at Grove City College, where he completed his B.S. in Computer Science with a minor in Mathematics.
