Objectives

Provideing comprehensive and integrated studies of subjects in ambient computing, multimedia, interaction.

Why

Smart devices have moved into our lives. Ambient computing will change our perception of our living environment. Robots and robotics will offer new user adapted services, as houses become smart… After this Master, you will be able to understand the main ideas and key issues in ambient computing, multimedia information processing, context-aware speech and image/video processing, sensors and sensor network, human-machine interaction (person-system interaction) to propose solutions to handle these issues, to imagine and design new applications in this field, and to participate in innovation in Vietnam and Asia.

You will be trained to develop professional skills needed for success in teamwork, written and oral communication and to develop independent study skills to obtain knowledge of state-of-the-art information.

In an international environment, you can build a global contact network of tutors, researchers and industrials, as well as fellow students.
