PROTO Lab


PROTO Lab is both a makerspace and a research lab where we work with prototyping as inquiry – using prototyping as a methodological approach to explore technological possibilities and generate knowledge about them. We use open-source software and hardware to develop prototypes of all shapes and sizes as part of student projects, business development and applied research activities.



What can you do in PROTO Lab?


Hands-on technology
