Through collaborative R&D, cutting edge product development, engagement with industry partners we have become an internationally recognized center of excellence for ICT research and innovation over the last 20 years.

AR and VR has massive innovation potential across a wide range of industries and research fields. Our team is very active in this space and has expertise and experience in the following areas:
• Context aware augmented environments;
• UI/UX for virtual and augmented applications;
• VR and AR immersive experiences;
• Training and education;
• AR/VR telepresence communication and collaboration systems;
• AR/VR front end applications and visualisation for AI/data analytics systems;
• Productivity tools and applications;
• SDK development for bespoke VR hardware;
