The ARTEC group focuses its research tasks in the field of computer graphics. Within this area is focused on interactive 3D graphics, Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and Civil Simulation. In addition, the group works in related areas such as ubiquitous computing or intelligent environments. The group performs both basic and applied research tasks. In this sense, the group has applied simulation systems to training and research in human factors, emphasizing especially in driving simulators. This line of work has led to the development of hardware systems for immersive 3D projection supports, as well as motion platforms for the generation of gravitational-inertial keys with the development of mechanical actuators.
Basic and applied research in the field of real-time 3D graphics.
- Multimodal interaction systems
Development of human-computer interaction technologies making use of different communication channels between user and computer.
- Virtual reality
Research in the interaction paradigm based on immersive virtual environments where the user is isolated from the environment and introduced in a synthetic environment in order to perform a training or live a different experience. Includes use of specific devices.
- Augmented reality
Research in the field of Augmented Reality, where real world information is increased with synthetic information. Augmented Reality systems require position locators, creation of synthetic information (usually 3D environments), and systems that integrate the real world with the synthetic one.
