“Ubiquitous Multimedia Computing” it is a prominent and fast growing research area. “Ubiquitous Multimedia Services” allows people to access rich multimedia content anytime, anywhere, using different networks, computing devices, interaction and visualization systems.

The new scenario suggested by ubiquitous multimedia computing poses new challenges across many areas of computer science: wireless and mobile networks, multimedia processing, multimedia systems and applications, operating systems, middleware, and user devices.

UBQ special research fields are:

• Computer Vision: development of software algorithms that implement “view and learn” capabilities for general purposes computational devices.
• Human Data Interfaces: design of natural interfaces based on tactile and gesture recognition.
• Visualization: delivery of multimedia contents on any surface, material or environment.

UBQ is a team built of professionals with more than ten years of experience in designing and developing technology for multimedia productions: cinema, advertising, telco, video game, broadcasters.
