Welcome to the UCSC Computer Vision Lab!

We do research on several aspects of computer vision, image processing, and sensor signal processing, including:

  • Visual tracking
  • Assistive technology for visually impaired persons
  • Mobile vision
  • Surveillance
  • Power-aware camera networks
  • Vision for robotics
  • 3-D vision

The laboratory, formed in 2001 by R. Manduchi and H. Tao, is part of the Department of Computer Engineering. Our research has been supported by grants from NSF, NIH, DARPA, NASA, HP Labs, SAIC, Honda Research, NEC, and Microsoft. 

Please visit our projects and publications pages for information about our current and past research.

Perspective graduate students: We are looking for new talented Ph.D. students. If you would like to join the Computer Vision Lab, please apply for admission in the Department of Computer Engineering.
