IT INNOVATION

The IT Innovation Centre, which is part of the Faculty of Physical Science and Engineering at the University of Southampton, is an applied research centre covering the development, architecture, engineering, research and integration of innovative IT systems, implementing results from the research community to address real-world problems.

Within eVACUATE project, our role will focus primarily though not exclusively across the area of the detection and recognition of crowd and individual behaviours in emergency situations, providing an interface between psychology, computer vision, data fusion and semantics with the other components of the eVACUATE system.
