Visual Computing

Working Group
Visual Computing

The focus of the Visual Computing Group is on Computer Graphics and Information Visualization. Our main interests are topics like 'modelling' and 'efficient rendering' of complex objects (e.g. plants, landscapes). We are also specialised in 'sampling methods' and 'non- photorealistic rendering'.

In Information Visualization we focus on 'perceptual justification' and 'uncertainty quantification'. In addition, we are researching virtual realities for animals within the cluster "Collective Behaviour"

Prof. Dr. Deussen is with Prof. Dr. Iain Couzin speaker of the Excellence Cluster "Collective Behaviour"

The e-David project merges painting with robotics and computer science. Its primary objective is to develop a painting machine that can replicate human artistic processes and to provide a framework for automatic painting.
