About group
The CGG was founded in 1993 at the Department of Computer Engineering, CTU FEE. Currently, the CGG is part of the Department of Computer Graphics and Interaction, and consists of fourteen academic staff and researchers and eight doctoral students.
Computer graphics is a dynamic research discipline that deals with the modeling and rendering of virtual environments, data visualization, virtual and augmented reality and other areas related to the display of graphical information.
The aim of our research activities is the development of new methods, algorithms and data structures to improve the state-of-the-art in the field of computer graphics. The outputs of our research can be applied, for example, in predictive rendering for the architecture and automotive industry, movie industry and computer games, virtual presentations for the preservation of cultural heritage, or in the visualization of scientific and medical data.
Our Projects
- Methods for realistic image synthesis using ray-tracing-based methods
- Efficient data structures for ray tracing
