Industrial
There are few industries in which visual computing technologies cannot contribute in some way. In manufacturing industries, for example, RIVIC researchers can help with product design, ergonomics, marketing, and much more. The ability to simulate new products and designs before they need to be fabricated can significantly reduce costs within the overall product cycle.
