Centre for Visual Computing

World-class research and development in visual image data processing, bridging the business and academic worlds.

The Centre has a unique dual focus. Our research projects change the way we compute visual image data; our commercial projects address real business problems and deliver practical applications for our industry partners.

Research expertise

With a strong interdisciplinary focus, our research activity brings together three areas of expertise – computational, physiological and psychological – in order to make advances in fields as diverse as visual media, biometrics, security and computer gaming.

We are always looking to get involved in new research partnerships and collaborative projects and occasionally have opportunities for research placements and studentships.
