Mobile and Web Computing Lab (MWC Lab)
The main purpose of the laboratory is to support research and teaching process related to mobile computing. Laboratory supports research and student projects from multiple domains that can greatly benefit from mobile computing technology such as computer vision, computer graphics, machine learning and augmented reality. Currently the laboratory hardware equipment consists of several mobile devices with iOS, Android. The aim is in near future equip laboratory with computers that will be used for teaching practical aspects of development of native and web mobile applications. The Mobile Computing Lab offers students an environment where they are able to explore as well as develop the skills and knowledge in order to create new technologies, new innovations in order to increase efficiency and usability for individuals.
