Flexible Atrium Space
The atrium is home to the Dexterity Nexus (DexNex), testbed for the HAND ERC, as well as a multipurpose motion capture arena.
Our faculty and students share ideas, equipment, and research space.
The expanded 13,000-square-foot space in the Technology Institute includes small, specialized laboratories; a high-ceilinged atrium for flying drones; a makerspace complete with 3D printers, a laser cutter, benchtop machine tools, hand tools, soldering equipment, and supplies; wet labs; and a wide-open collaboration space that the researchers call the “robot zoo” where students and faculty can test their work on wheeled mobile robots, walking robots, swarmbots, and robot arms and hands.
The atrium is home to the Dexterity Nexus (DexNex), testbed for the HAND ERC, as well as a multipurpose motion capture arena.
This area features a number of robot arms, mobile robots, and swarmbots for shared use.
Students in the Master of Science in Robotics program use this space to collaborate on projects.
In this space, equipped with the latest technology, students work on building prototypes.
No creative space would be complete without a cozy kitchen.
In this space, undergraduate and graduate students can collaborate or work individually.
