The technological platform called "Image Centre" is a project initiated and led by the SIC group at CReSTIC. It involves bringing together as many scientific and technological clusters as possible with training and re-use activities through research for or by digital imaging.
THE "IMAGE CENTRE" TODAY
- funded as part of the Num3D technology platform of the ICOS focus for the current State-Region project contract as well as part of a Multi-Training Programme at URCA;
- a virtual reality room installed at IUT in Reims and operational since the 1st quarter of 2009.
THE "IMAGE CENTRE" HAS SEVERAL MISSIONS
- The deployment of technological resources required for the work of the local teams engaged in research involving, for example, scientific visualisation, simulation, real-time exploration of 3D virtual worlds and the digital processing of images;
- The resolution of problems (for users or developers of these technologies) which have not been resolved because of a lack of resources or partners;
- Establishing contact, on these themes, between different local, regional and even national players, whether they are institutional, industrial or students;
- The reconciliation of national networks developing these technologies.
