The Graphics and Hypermedia Lab was initiated in 2001 but got its own space and equipment in 2002 when the Computer Science Deparment was relocated to the new UCY campus. It occupies rooms 122 and 123 in building 012 and it has a variety of equipment such a 3D powerwall, HMD, access to 3D scanner, image and video facilities etc.
