Intel on Tuesday said it was granting US$12 million over five years to Saarland University in Germany to research graphics technologies.
The funds will be used to form the Intel Visual Computing Institute, where researchers will investigate the use of multiple computing cores to create realistic graphics, said Megan Langer, a company spokeswoman.
The lab will focus on basic and applied research to develop programming models and architectures that boost computing using gestures, image recognition and life-like images. The research could be applied by software programmers to develop games, medical imaging or 3D engineering applications.
