University Research
Emily Carr University has recently launched Intersections Digital Studios, a research facility that is unique in Canada. Students and faculty have access to new state-of-the-art equipment such as a motion capture studio for research in animation, ergonomics and interactive entertainment, a CNC machine for cutting prototypes in new shapes and forms, thermal printers, spatial, full-body and flatbed scanners for work in 2D and 3D, a Bailey kiln for proto-typing in ceramics and industrial design, digital HD video cameras, and an Apple Xserve server system for high speed rendering, as well as the more traditional resources available at the University.
In November 2009, Emily Carr University teamed up Lucasfilm spinoff, Kerner Studios, announced the establishment of a stereoscopic 3-D research studio.
These dynamic technologies will significantly expand the capacity for creative exploration, experimentation and innovation. This unique research facility provides a flexible environment where researchers with specialized knowledge in art, design and technology can collaborate in an interdisciplinary manner.

Famous quotes containing the words university and/or research:
“I had a classmate who fitted for college by the lamps of a lighthouse, which was more light, we think, than the University afforded.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Men talk, but rarely about anything personal. Recent research on friendship ... has shown that male relationships are based on shared activities: men tend to do things together rather than simply be together.... Female friendships, particularly close friendships, are usually based on self-disclosure, or on talking about intimate aspects of their lives.”
—Bettina Arndt (20th century)
