Founded in 1992, the Centre for Vision Research focusses on interdisciplinary research into human and machine vision and visual processes, into vision's interactions with other senses and with motor and cognitive processes, and in applications such as visually-guided robotics or clinical diagnosis and treatment.
The Centre for Vision Research includes the following major research themes:

* Human Visual Performance
* Visual Human-Computer Interaction, Graphics and Virtual Reality
* Visual Psychophysics
* Eye Movements and Hand-Eye Coordination
* Computational Modeling and Computer Vision
* Electrophysiology
* Clinical and Developmental Studies
* Brain Imaging
