De-stressing During Exam Weeks
Exams can be stressful for everyone. If you are fighting against your nerves, the Interaction Lab can help! On the 16th and 23rd of April, we are organizing study breaks for anyone who needs to sit down and breathe. During these breaks, around lunchtime, you can join us for yoga and meditation sessions in our lab!
Of course, we will show you how technology can be implemented to boost these practices and your well-being. So, if you are curious about how a smartwatch can help you understand the impacts of yoga on your body, or how extended reality can guide you through an even more immersive meditation, do not forget to sign up and join us! More details are given below. See you there!

Extra News!
Hold on! The Interaction Lab has one more exciting news to share. We have just finished assembling and calibrating our latest 3D printer: a Prusa XL with 5 interchangeable tool heads! This printer can combine multiple different filament colours and/or materials in the same print, with minimal waste. This opens interesting experimentation options, like mixing flexible with stiff filaments or conducting with non-conducting material. Already know how you want to use our new tech? Pass by the lab! We can’t wait to see what you plan on printing next!
