The <a href="https://www.lapix.ufsc.br">LAPIX Lab</a> is dedicated to R&D on new technologies for image processing, analysis and visualization, immersive collaboration and interactive digital TV. LAPIX is a laboratory associated with the <a href="https://www.incod.ufsc.br">INCoD</a> (INCT for Digital Convergence). It is located in the <a href="https://ine.ufsc.br/">Department of Computer Science and Statistics – INE</a> – of the <a href="https://portal.ctc.ufsc.br/"> </a>Technology Center – CTC – of the <a href="https://en.ufsc.br">Federal University of Santa Catarina – UFSC</a>. This laboratory is the result of research started by <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/awangenh/">Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Aldo von Wangenheim</a> in Image Processing in 1997, at UFSC. The laboratory is composed of professors, researchers, PhDs, Masters, graduates, and undergraduates.
