The MMVL has been working on a number of European and UK funded research projects, such as Miniman and Micron (also see past projects). Currently the MMVL is participating in I-SWARM, Nanorobotics, GUARDIANS, and VIEW-FINDER (also see present projects), and it is active in the area of medical image processing. The MMVL is also actively involved in consultancy for industry.
