PLENOPTIMA
Plenoptic Imaging
Plenoptic Imaging (PLENOPTIMA) is a four-year (2021–2024) H2020 Marie Sklodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network that develops a cross-disciplinary approach to plenoptic imaging, which includes new optical materials and sensing principles, signal processing methods, new computing architectures, and vision science modelling. With this aim, PLENOPTIMA joins five of the strongest research groups in nanophotonics, imaging and machine learning in Europe with twelve innovative companies, research institutes, and a pre-competitive business ecosystem developing and marketing plenoptic imaging devices and services.
MIRO
Mixed Reality for Operating Mobile Machines
The MIRO project aims at commercialization of technology developed in previous university research. The main objective is to provide a solution to key visibility issues in the operation of heavy mobile work machines. The project has received Business Finland‘s Research to Business funding.
MIRO builds upon a Tekes-funded project, Digital See-through Structures for Work Machines, which was carried out in 2016-2017. The SeeWork project resulted in a concept that removes virtually visual barriers in the work machine context by utilizing camera and display technologies and modern signal processing and 3D imaging methods.
Modeling and Visualization of Perceivable Light Fields
Academy of Finland Project
The project aims at advancing the transdisciplinary concept of perceivable light fields, combining research on displays (optics), rendering (computer graphics), light field representation (computational imaging), and human perception (vision science). The ultimate goal of the project is to develop efficient computational 3D image (light field) rendering algorithms for the next-generation near-eye light field displays. The project has received funding from the Academy of Finland.
RemoteFeel
Digital Feel for Accurate Operation of Work Machines
The goal of RemoteFeel is to build a remote operation platform which allows companies to tailor remote operation solutions to their specific needs, and achieve working conditions where heavy work machines can be operated more efficiently, safely, and pleasantly. RemoteFeel is a research project funded by Business Finland, FIMA ry (Forum for Intelligent Machines) and the research parties at Tampere University. RemoteFeel is a two-year project, scheduled to end in February 2020.
ImmerSAFE
Immersive Visual Technologies for Safety-critical Applications
ImmerSAFE is a four year (2018-2021) H2020 Marie Sklodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network that brings together 9 beneficiaries and 5 partner organizations from Finland, Sweden, Norway, Croatia, Italy, and Switzerland, with the aim of training a new generation of multi-disciplinary experts, who have an understanding of the core imaging technologies, the requirements set to them by the safety-critical applications and who can account for the human user in the design of such systems.
ITER
Fusion for Energy Grant 5
Development of Remote Diagnostics and Computer-aided Teleoperation Tools for Remote Handling. 2018-2020, Fusion for Energy (the EU’s Joint Undertaking for ITER).
CIVIT
Centre for Immersive Visual Technologies
CIVIT, Centre for Immersive Visual Technologies, is a research infrastructure unit at Hervanta Campus in Tampere University. We provide research facilities, equipment and expertise in the emerging field of immersive visual technologies. Established as an Academy of Finland Firi Project (2014-2016), now continuing as a Tampere University infrastructure unit.
