The digital world
7
Our researchers are active in all these areas. In pushing technology boundaries we open up new opportunities for public and commercial organisations, as well as benefiting society in general. Our input into ethical policies and guidelines is also helping to make the digital world safer and fairer.
Here are some of our achievements:
• We are pioneering techniques to improve the efficiency of computational science tools used in applications like medical imaging and car design.
• Capitalising on the latest multi-core processing technology is key to the future of the software sector – work on SaC programming offers a potential solution.
• Our interactive robot KASPAR is helping to break the isolation for children with autism.
• Advances in speaker recognition and speaker change detection are making voice biometrics more robust for security and fraud prevention.
• InterHome, smart home technology designed to make energy-efficient living more mainstream, is being showcased by the Building Research Establishment.
• Through the UNESCO Chair in Information and Computer Ethics, we are contributing to policies that will affect citizens around the world.
• Redefining the new art genre of video portraiture, we are challenging people’s thinking about time and space.
• Over twenty million people worldwide have used the Old Bailey Online as a free source of social history.
• Our studies into young people and music are informing industry debate about intellectual property and copyright.
