Research

Wireless Technologies
As wireless communications become ubiquitous and provide more capabilities, our research aims to deliver new wireless products and services for economic development, national security and sustainability.

Information Engineering
Information Engineering is about developing new tools, methods, architectures and products that allow people to effectively manage, query, analyse and refine information from many sources, and to navigate and deliver information that improves decision-making anywhere, anytime.

Networking Technologies
To take full advantage of a future where bandwidth is cheap and almost unlimited, we are exploring the possibilities of these high performance networks - how to build them and how to use them.

Autonomous Systems
We are developing new techniques for 3D perception and localisation, the autonomous control of machines, and the operation of large scale outdoor wireless sensor networks. These techniques being are combined to produce novel solutions to practical problems in fields such as environmental monitoring, agriculture, mining, manufacturing, and for the energy sector.

The Tasmanian ICT Centre, established in late September 2006, is jointly funded by the Australian Government (through the Intelligent Island Program) and CSIRO.

The Australian e-Health Research Centre is a is a joint venture between CSIRO and the Queensland Government and is a leading national research facility in ICT for healthcare innovations.
