OPPO and Tsinghua University recently announced the establishment of a joint research center for future terminal technology, where the two parties will collaborate on research in human-computer interaction technology, cognitive computing, computer vision, and computational camera science.
The center's research will be closely integrated with future terminal and wearable device industry applications to achieve cross-disciplinary integration.
OPPO said it will collaborate with several departments at Tsinghua University, including the Department of Computer Science, Department of Automation, Institute of Brain and Cognitive Science, School of Software, School of Materials, School of Medicine and School of Fine Arts.
Academician Dai Qionghai of Tsinghua University said the establishment of the center will promote the application of smartphones in pathology detection, microscopy, human-computer interaction and many other fields.
Zheng Li, vice president of Tsinghua University, said OPPO is an important enterprise in the field of mobile communications in the world, with strong strength in the development and manufacture of smartphones and other terminals, and looked forward to an early breakthrough in the scientific cooperation between Tsinghua and OPPO.
The establishment of a joint research center with Tsinghua University is another important event in OPPO's Bell Program.
Since the launch of the Bell Program in 2018, OPPO has been conducting research cooperation and academic exchanges with 40 renowned universities at home and abroad, including Stanford University, Tsinghua University, New York University, Peking University, Zhejiang University, and the University of Electronic Science and Technology, and has established a joint research center with two top universities, Tsinghua University and Zhejiang University.
Liu Chang, president of OPPO Research Institute, said OPPO will help break the circle of products and services with technology, and cooperate with Tsinghua in the fields of process, design, artificial intelligence and next-generation interaction technology under the guidance of the strategy of mutual integration of all things.
