ACVT has been awarded a 3 year ARC Discovery Grant valued at $225,000. The CIs are Prof. Anton van den Hengel in collaboration with Dr Philip Torr of Oxford-Brookes University in the UK.

Many industry sectors are becoming increasingly reliant on the production of 3D models from imagery. These models are used for purposes such as video post-production, virtual reality, reverse engineering, 3D medical imaging, planning and simulation. By developing technologies and expertise in these areas, and particularly in model generation, within Australia, the research team aim to provide a capacity of significant value to Australian industry and a valuable export opportunity.
