Labs
Artevelde UAS has diverse labs that each focus on the desires and needs of a specific knowledge area, and that let you discover the latest technologies and innovations. Our experts will work with you on a specific question, formulate practical recommendations, and develop custom prototypes. These labs are open spaces with room for experimenting, co-creation, and creativity. Find out what they can do for you.
Artevelde UAS has several labs dedicated to practical scientific research within current themes. Typically, these labs are low-threshold and accessible. The various labs of Arteveldehogeschool are places to develop new products or services in co-creation with lecturers, students and researchers. Depending on your question, this can be done for free with students or paying with researchers.
The labs provide space for service, research and teaching activities. The labs focus on experimentation, co-creation and dialogue. You can find the latest technologies or trends and discover what they can do for you. You can test or optimise things. In this way, different stakeholders can deepen and broaden their expertise.
With the support of VLAIO.
Meet our labs
Research at Artevelde UAShas several labs, each dedicated to the needs and requirements of a specific field of knowledge.
You can go there to get acquainted with the latest technologies and innovations. Our experts will work with you on a concrete question, formulate tangible recommendations and develop tailor-made prototypes. They are open places where there is room for experimentation, co-creation and creativity. Find out what they can do for you.
Media Lab
The Media Lab is a place where people and technology meet. The Media Lab lets you have a taste of technology and user research, and encourages collaboration and knowledge sharing.
Prototyping Lab
In the Prototyping Lab, digital designs can quickly be converted into cheap testable prototypes. In that way, you increase the usability and success of your digital development.
Immersive Lab
In the Immersive Lab, we use high-fidelity manikins for research and training in the most diverse environments: from a busy train station to a penthouse that is on fire. In the Observation Lab, qualitative camera registrations are used to study our own as well as external care innovations.
Foot Health Lab
In this lab, you are welcome with research questions related to podiatry. These can be research questions on products (like safety shoes, silicon pads, ankle braces), but also application (for instance a scan of fingernail curvatures). Research, testing, and tailored advice.
Audio Lab
In the Audio Lab, we do accurate measurements of headphones, earphones, hearing protectors, and headsets. It is equipped with a GRAS 45BC-13 KEMAR with a mouth simulator, high-frequency ear simulators (up to 20 kHz), and anthropometric pinnae.
Fablab
Become a care architect! Fab Lab is a cooperative workplace where developers, researchers, and care professionals collaborate to create smart and accessible care innovations, tailored to their care users. 3D-printers, VR-glasses, laser cutter, … You name it, we've got it!
Mobile Lab
With our mobile research lab, we make an effort for outreaching and accessible custom research. We come to you to experience the context with a flexibly equipped lab tailored to target group and research or development question. The equipment of the lab is aimed at three basic functionalities:
- joint observation (measuring, registration, etc.)
- joint thinking (brainstorm, co-creation, etc.)
- joint creation (3D printing, STEM, etc.)
VRIJPLAATS
VRIJPLAATS is a research place that builds bridges between education, research and society. Together with external organisations, NGOs, teachers, researchers, students and educators, we explore authentic challenges in our practice. We design educational materials that put quality and integrated learning at the centre.
3ID LABS
3ID LABS is a full-time teaching module of 30 credits and is part of formal education. It is open to all undergraduate, graduate and PhD students who have taken at least 100 credits. 3ID LABS can be part of a curriculum or taken on top of it. You will receive training in an open learning environment with 24/7 access, developing tailor-made solutions to real-world challenges.
