We are interested in all aspects of computer graphics. Our focus, though, lies at the core of computer graphics and we seek and solve the fundamental problems that prohibit interactive display of real world models. In other words, interactive generation of believable images of real world models sums up the driving motivation of our research. As a result our research path has taken us through massive-model walkthrough, dynamic surface tessellation, view-dependent mesh simplification, visibility computation, collision detection, efficient geometry representation, large-scale volume rendering, parallel rendering, image-based rendering and many other areas. 

     In our lab we try to facilitate independence of research tracks for students, while at the same time moving them all towards the common goal of advancing the speed and quality of rendering. This naturally fosters collaborations and exchange of ideas. In addition, we have regular lab get-togethers, individual research meetings and seminars.
