The Computer Vision and Robotics Research Group (VICOROB) are devoted to the research related to the areas of computer vision, image processing and robotics. VICOROB is composed of 75 members (22 PhDs) and in the period 2007-2017 has participated in 38 European and Spanish Research Projects (7,5M€) and 36 Industry Contracts (2M€), has supervised 55 PhD/MSc theses and published 150+ articles in journals, 50+ book chapters and 250+ conference attendances.

The "Underwater Robotics and Vision Research Lab" (CIRS) is part of ViCOROB institute. At CIRS, there are two main research lines: underwater robotics and underwater vision. This combination of knowledge in a sole team is the most important characteristic of CIRS. In the last four years (2014-2017) the lab has consolidated its capacities in research of excellence, publishing more than a 50% of its scientific papers in journals of Q1 and attending to the most remarkable conferences in its field of expertise.

Along with its specialized singular building located at the Science and Technology park of the UdG, the lab has become a widely known infrastructure both in terms of highly qualified multidisciplinary staff and unique facilities in Europe.
