Disney Research, Pittsburgh

Our lab in Pittsburgh is co-located with Carnegie Mellon University. Carnegie Mellon has one of the country’s top five graduate programs in computer science, and is particularly strong in robotics, computer vision, human-computer interaction (HCI), speech understanding, and machine learning. Our relationship with Carnegie Mellon provides opportunities for collaboration, as well as access to state-of-the-art laboratory facilities in robotics and motion capture. Our Pittsburgh lab also conducts research in radio and antennas, and has a focus in sports visualization. Pittsburgh researchers are currently executing projects inspired by ESPN, Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, and other business units of The Walt Disney Company.
