The Wealth from Oceans Flagship, together with its research partners, is providing Australia with a key capacity to discover, protect and realise the benefits of our ocean territories.
The ICT Centre is CSIRO's national research hub for developing innovative information and communication technologies. These technologies are applied to Australia across the breadth CSIRO’s engagement with industry and society.
The Australian e-Health Research Centre has shown that it is possible to accurately predict how many patients will present at hospital emergency departments, their expected medical needs and the number of hospital admissions.
CSIRO scientists with the Minerals Down Under National Research Flagship are working closely with industry and government to develop vastly improved navigation technology for remote areas.
CSIRO’s research in this area enables decision makers in business and industry to understand their data and to make reliable, productive and informed decisions.
CSIRO's Healthy Terrestrial Ecosystems theme brings together multi-disciplinary teams to develop new technologies and approaches to promote ecosystem function and prediction to inform biodiversity management, planning and incentives.
Wearable intelligent textiles, incorporating electronic circuitry and sensors, are well suited to become the basis of the next generation of control systems for many applications of mobile computing, allowing complete freedom of movement.
CSIRO researchers have been researching ways to use graphics processing units (GPUs) to speed up scientific computing. CSIRO researchers Dr John A Taylor and Dr Luke Domanski discuss this in this video. (2:38)
