NTNU – ApPEARS

NTNU is a leading science and technology university and as of 1st of January 2016, Norway’s largest university with 39 000 students and almost 400 doctoral dissertations per year, as a result of merging with the University Colleges of Ålesund, Gjøvik and Sør-Trøndelag. NTNU will participate in ApPEARS through the Norwegian Colour and Visual Computing Laboratory (Colourlab), within the Department of Computer Science (IDI), Faculty if Information Technology and Electrical Engineering. Since its foundation in 2001 Colourlab has risen to become an internationally leading research group in the field of colour imaging science and image- and video processing. The Colourlab core group consists of several researchers with a broad competence basis in fields such as graphic arts, colour imaging science, media technology, computer science, signal processing, physics, image processing, and video processing (www.colourlab.no).

Key Research Facilities

The Colourlab owns excellent laboratory facilities, which includes spacious (>200 m2) laboratory areas for research and teaching activities. It is a base for extensive R&D activities, ranging from fundamental colour science to applied colour imaging technology. Furthermore, the laboratory facilities of the Department of Manufacturing and Civil Engineering will be made available for ApPEARS. (see more)
