3D Printing

The Lab has two 3D printers, one Ultimaker 2+ and one Makerbot Replicator 2x, as well as a Makerbot Digitizer 3D scanner. Ultimaker 2+ uses 2.85mm diameter PLA material, while Makerbot supports dual extrusion and uses 1.75mm diameter ABS material. The two 3D printers are used for educational purposes and experimental projects.

Objects are designed in a specialized modelling program, such as Tinkercad, Blender, Rhinoceros 5 and SketchUp. After the design is finalized, they are printed in one of our 3D printers.

DIY kits

The Lab is equipped with three Google AIY Voice Kits Version 2.0, as well as the educational platform Lego Mindstorms EV3. The platform is consisted of various components, such as bricks-joints, shafts, gears, electronic parts and software, which enable the construction and programming of an object’s motion. Some indicative examples of the platform’s use are at the “Little Architects” workshops for the purpose of creating a parklet and at the all-day summer camp titled “Tech Adventure” for the creation of an explorer’s figure.

Lego Mindstorms EV3 platform includes:

LEGO NXT EV3.0 Basic
LEGO NXT EV3 Expansion set
LEGO Mindstorms Education EV3 software
LEGO Mindstorms Education EV3 design projects
LEGO NXT transformer
EV3 infrared emitter
Infrared sensor
Multimeters
