Cooperative Research Centres Programme

Grant Activity:

Growing Australia's Cloud Gaming Industry with AI-assisted Network Boost

Purpose:

Australian game studios that produce animation, sound, music and cinematography, are a high-growth sector contributing $226.5M to the local economy. Cloud gaming has the potential to expand the digital games industry manifold, but is stymied by its high demand on network bandwidth. Canopus Networks, a high-tech SME specialising in artificial intelligence based analytics of high-speed network traffic, will partner with Pentanet, a local ISP and operator of cloud gaming, and research partner UNSW Sydney to develop and commercially launch a novel on-demand network boost capability. This project will enhance Australian AI capability, accelerate cloud gaming adoption globally, and benefit Australias game studios and creative digital economy.
