Our lab, in collaboration with CYENS Centre of Excellence, features state-of-the-art facilities and equipment designed to support groundbreaking research in deep learning, computer vision, augmented and virtual reality, computer graphics, and more. Some Key Infrastructure Highlights:

1. Virtual Production Studio
   • Equipped with a 30 sqm LED wall delivering more than 100% coverage of the REC2020 color space, ultra-high resolution, and low latency, ideal for immersive media applications.
2. Motion Capture Systems
   • Conventional Motion Capture: A 24-camera PhaseSpace Inc. Impulse X2E system with active markers, capturing at 960fps and full 13MP resolution. This system utilizes modulated LEDs and linear scanner arrays to accurately track 3D motion.
   • Portable Wireless Mocap Systems: Multiple XSENS and Rokoko systems, including face and hand capture capabilities, suitable for both lab-based and field use.
   • Volumetric Capture: We have installed the Evercoast Volumetric Capture system with 24 cameras.
3. Film Production and High-Performance Computing
   • Film production equipment paired with state-of-the-art computing systems, including:
     • Supermicro servers with 80TB high-speed storage.
     • Workstations featuring AMD Threadripper CPUs and NVidia A6000 GPUs for real-time, hyper-realistic graphics rendering on platforms like Unreal Engine.
4. Extended Reality (XR) Devices
   • A diverse range of head-mounted devices, including Meta Quest, HTC Vive Pro, and Microsoft HoloLens, enabling immersive experiences.
5. AI and Deep Learning Infrastructure
   • Access to an advanced AI cluster comprising 8 computational nodes, each equipped with 8 NVIDIA Ampere GPUs, offering exceptional performance for AI-based applications.
6. Additional Specialized Equipment
   • 3D printers and specialized scanners, such as insect-specific scanners, to support diverse research needs.

Our comprehensive infrastructure empowers researchers and creators to push the boundaries of technology and innovation in a collaborative environment.
