FHL Vive Center for Enhanced Reality

Home

Mission

The main goals of the center are to sponsor critical fundamental research and high-impact applications in the emerging fields of Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Artificial Intelligence (AI), and at the same time serve as the central hub to facilitate the deployment of disruptive VR, AR, and AI technologies across the Berkeley campus for cross-disciplinary research and education.

We aim to achieve these goals by offering seed grant to our faculty, supervising and facilitating student research activities, and fostering external industry partnerships with other stakeholders.
