Cuteness overload…

Today we got our Codey Rocky educational pack. 6 cute robots!
Also, our first LEGO Spike Kit has arrived. And we finally took our puff cushions out of their bags.

Once upon a time…there was a lathe

A broken one. We even considered throwing it into the trashcan. 
But our good friend Diogo from the IT department took the matter into his hands and he fixed it. The problem: it was a broken screw and Diogo made a new one.

More colour, convenience and resources

We received 170 Arduino Kits, which are going to be used in the Tecnologias da Informática course. In 2022/2023, these kits will be lent to our first year students, which will be able to take them home to work and learn autonomously.

We also got a new whiteboard, colourful stock boxes for our perforated wall panels, and a set of square puff cushions.

Qual é o teu Poster? — an Informal Poster Session

On the last 17th of June, the Qual é o teu Poster? event tool place — this is an Informal Poster Session at the University of Coimbra, that resulted from a partnership between CDV lab (University of Coimbra) and LASIGE (University of Lisbon).

The event was attended by 29 participants (24 from CISUC and 5 from the University of Lisbon) and took place at the Department of Informatics Engineering, University of Coimbra.

And – guess what? – the Amazing Lab was there!

Create!

We found a place for our FACOM cabinet, 3D printed a pair of angle brackets and reused an old square table (coated in PVC film, with a cork protection). This is the result.
