iHub Drishti, IIT Jodhpur is a Technology Innovation Hub focussed around “Computer Vision, Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality”. It is a Section-8, Not-for-profit Organisation, promoted by and at the Indian Institute of Technology Jodhpur under a National Mission on Interdisciplinary Cyber Physical Systems (NM-ICPS) of the Government of India. The hub, steered by the Hub Governing Board and the Director of the TIH, will host teams of faculty members, research scholars, developers and scientists who will work towards developing the technologies. Further, four different kinds of partners are identified: (i) research collaborators from national and international institutions, (ii) domain expert partner institutions, (iii) hub and spoke model (mentor-mentee) based partner institutions, and (iv) research labs and industry including startups. The TIH envisions creating an ecosystem in and around the thematic areas and building collaborations with other TIHs to foster the overall growth and development of CPS technologies. The facility would include a mix of office and laboratory spaces with state-of-the-art infrastructure facilities, that will cater to the collaborating institutions. The TIH will also build a network of researchers and developers, both externally hired and from the student body, such that in the next 5 years, iHub Drishti becomes the main hub of technologies related to computer vision, virtual and augmented reality in the entire country.
We aim to make iHub-Drishti as a nation-wide consortium of all three entities - researchers, industry partners, and user agencies working in CV, AR and VR, with invested involvement from national stakeholders and participation from international experts.
