CrossLab, the big idea.... Laboratories play a key role in a wide range of STEM courses. As part of the project, we have the opportunity to look beyond our own horizons and launch a call to support new innovative laboratory ideas at the partner universities. Ideas from students and lecturers are of equal interest. Here is an overview of the developments....

MINIS (short for miniaturized production systems) is a learning environment for students provided by several logistic chairs. The learning environment serves as a common knowledge base and incubator for designing innovative learning concepts in the fields of logistics. MINIS aims at illustrating the dynamics of supply chains as a composition
Competition
The technical drawing is the most important tool of communication of an engineer. Teaching in the field of mechanical engineering shows that students in the first semesters are usually not able to recognize the components, machinery and their functions from technical drawings. ViSAs will help students to develop an understanding
Competition
The planned augmented reality app for smartphones and tablets will enable students to measure the two-dimensional strain distribution on flat specimens during the test without complex measuring equipment and software. For example, during a tensile test in which a metallic specimen made of a material relevant to forming technology is
Competition
The digital laboratory consists of two flexibly combinable parts. In the first part, an extraction column is operated in virtual reality (VR) as a digital twin. The laboratory setup, experimental conduction and possible measurement methods are displayed. In the virtual environment, the flow diagram and the real plant setup are
Competition
The "laboratory of tomorrow" needs employees with the competence to continuously record and evaluate chemical-physical data and to operate processes automatically and remotely. These skills are to be acquired with the "Arduino-controlled titration laboratory". The product of action is a set-up for carrying out titrations in
Competition
The virtual mini-laboratory enables students to carry out experiments in direct fastening technology. Various parametric configurations of the direct fastening are simulated and carried out using FEM software. The simulations are implemented in a user-friendly interface in such a way that the students can vary the experiments parametrically and acquire
