2. Labs with Industry Collaboration
Department developed industry based labs such as Center for Computer Vision Research Lab, 5G and Emerging Wireless Technologies lab to strengthen U.G., P.G. projects and Research activities. The details of the research labs are listed as follows.
1) Center for Computer Vision Research Lab
The Center for CCTV Research, located at Bengaluru‟s prestigious RV College of Engineering, is India‟s pioneering research unit in this area, created with the intention of being the catalyst to bridge the wide gap between the industry and creation & execution of humongous CCTV projects in the country. The Center aims to fulfil the Gap of knowledge, Practice, Protocols, Testing, Experiments, Certification, Training, Expertise etc. While being a one stop shop for all CCTV project requirements it would be also the synthesis and the coordination center for all major CCTV players in the country and beyond. The creation and operations of this Center would be a clear manifestation of this dream. The coming together of different busi-
ness entities for a project is just crude distribution of work and a confident seem less consortium which this required for this purpose.
2) Center for 5G and Emerging Wireless Technologies
