The Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) has established the Virtual, Vision and Visualization Research Lab (UTM ViCubeLab) is  a cross-disciplinary research group in computing whose primary focus and activities revolves around the design, implementation and application of computer graphics, vision and virtual environment, simulation and immersive visualization theories.

We are in the field of Computer Graphic and Multimedia, the pioneer in computer graphics and multimedia education in Malaysia’s public universities. Established in 1995, besides strengthening our research areas and niche, we are committed to teaching, developing, and preparing students to become the best practitioners in computer graphics, multimedia, and computer game development. With well-equipped facilities and highly trained staff, we offer knowledge and services in producing experts, especially in computer vision and digital imaging, computer graphic and information visualization, computer games development & interactive simulation, as well as multimedia & internet computing.

The goal of the group is to develop resource efficient applications, theories and algorithms that could minimize human involvements in computing as a process as well as reducing the overhead costs associated with the use of computer limited resources. Located at the Faculty of Computing, UTM and currently working on a range of research and project in collaboration with industry and academia.

Computer Vision

The computer Vision is the science and technology of machines that see, where see in this case means that the machine is able to extract information from an image that is necessary to solve some task. As a scientific discipline, computer vision is concerned with the theory behind artificial systems that extract information from images. The image data can take many forms, such as video sequences, views from multiple cameras, or multi-dimensional data from a medical scanner.

Computer Graphics and Visualization

Visualization today has ever-expanding applications in science, education, engineering (e.g. product visualization), interactive multimedia , medicine  etc. Typical of a visualization application is the field of computer Graphic . The invention of computer graphics may be the most important development in visualization since the invention of central perspective  in the Renaissance   period. The development of animation  also helped advance visualization.

Speech Processing

Study related to speech processing includes speech recognition, speaker verification, emotions classification, dialogue system, text to speech (TTS) and application based works related to speech signal processing.

Virtual Reality

Virtual Reality is a term that applies to computer-simulated  environments that can simulate physical presence in places in the real world, as well as in imaginary worlds. Most current virtual reality environments are primarily visual experiences, displayed either on a computer screen or through special stereoscopic displays, but some simulations include additional sensory information, such as sound through speakers or headphones.
