In the scope of its R&D programme – strategic pillar for the development of the company – Eureva will stress amongst other possible scenarios two user-oriented technologies that are at the forefront of network intensive usages:
- Image recognition and augmented reality, in a cloud-based architecture (currently working in a high-profile national French national project to maintain autonomy for the disabled, helping them from their home to a shop)
- Thin client interaction, with cloud-based gaming scenarios on any device that also impose requirements on the network.
Specific to image recognition and cloud-computing architectures, we can mention the following projects:
