Multimedia Computing Systems Laboratory (MCSLab) is led by Prof. Eun-Seok Ryu and consists of two teams (video standard team and video enabling team). MCSLab conducts research on Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) and Video Coding Experts Group (VCEG) international standards for a virtual reality (VR) and their streaming applications.

Research Highlights at MCSLab
(1) Volumetric Video Capture & Streaming with Mobile Robots
We develop volumetric video technologies using mobile robotic platforms, enabling dynamic camera placement for more complete and consistent 3D scene acquisition. This supports real-time streaming and adaptive viewpoint rendering for immersive telepresence and next-generation media experiences.
(2) Dynamic 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS)
We focus on advanced 3DGS techniques for dynamic scene reconstruction and real-time rendering. Our research targets compact, time-varying representations and efficient compression for scalable, low-latency immersive media streaming.
(3) MPEG Gaussian Splat Coding (GSC) Standardization
We actively contribute to the MPEG GSC standard, defining efficient codecs for 3DGS-based content. Our efforts span algorithm design and participation in international standardization to ensure global interoperability of neural 3D video.

At MCSLab, we are also exploring intelligent video compression using deep learning to revolutionize multimedia systems. We aim to lead this emerging field by enhancing coding efficiency, visual quality, and adaptability across real-world applications.
We welcome collaboration and support from those who share our vision for the future of immersive and intelligent media.
