The Hochschule der Medien (HdM) is a state university of applied sciences located in Stuttgart-Vaihingen. Computer animation, film/VFX, sound production,
interactive media and games, as well as television and event media are the fields of study offered in the Audiovisual Media degree programme. Graduates leave the Hochschule der Medien as creative media engineers with the title Bachelor/Master of Engineering. The subject of games, interactive visualisations (VR/AR, 360°) is represented at the HdM by the „Institute for Games“, which offers training at both Bachelor‘s and Master‘s level. The Visual Media Lab (VMLab) at the Hochschule der Medien investigates various areas of visual competence, for example through new colour spaces, HDR and higher frame rates. New technologies and algorithms in the fields of computer graphics and visualisation, image and sound processing of audiovisual media are taught
and researched by the HdM. Visual analytics methods, image coding methods and the development of new colour standards for cinema, television and other image output devices are current research topics alongside numerical methods for calculating virtual fluids and textiles, as well as investigations into the human-machine interface and the accessibility of media. Possible applications of high-performance computing in the field of media production are being investigated by the Hochschule der Medien in cooperation with the Media Solution Center Baden-Württemberg (MSC-bw).
