            The Research Centre on Interactive Media, Smart Systems and
            Emerging Technologies,  is a newly founded research Centre
            in Cyprus aiming to become an internationally renowned
            Centre of excellence and innovation empowering knowledge and
            technology transfer in the region. It is a joint venture
            between the Municipality of Nicosia, the Max Planck
            Institute for Informatics (Germany), the University College
            London (UK) and the three public universities of Cyprus -
            University of Cyprus, Cyprus University of Technology, and
            Open University of Cyprus. This project has received funding
            from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and
            innovation programme H2020-WIDESPREAD-01-2016-2017 (Teaming
            Phase 2) under grant agreement No. 739578, as well as from
            the Cypriot Government, local and international partners and
            other sponsors.<br>
            <br>
            The Research focus is on interactive media. Interactive
            media have become an integral part of our lives, changing
            the way that information is conveyed to the user and the
            ways users interact with devices, with other people, and
            with the world around them. Research in the Centre
            integrates the Visual Sciences, Human Factors & Design,
            and Communications & Artificial Intelligence, in a tight
            synergy that provides a unique interdisciplinary research
            perspective that emphasizes an “Inspired by Humans, Designed
            for Humans” philosophy. The Centre is designed to act as an
            integrator of academic research and industrial innovation,
            towards the sustainable fueling of the scientific,
            technological, and economic growth of Cyprus and Europe. For
