Don’t miss a visit to the Centre for Experimental Archaeology and Materials Culture, where we will have a range of specialists from the UCD School of Archaeology talking to visitors about their area of expertise with the aid of demonstrations, guided handling of ancient artefacts (man-made objects) and other sample material (human and animal bone,… Continue reading Interactive Archaeology
Get ready to be inspired in an immersive showcase! A not-to-be-missed and unique opportunity to connect with the Medtronic team of engineers and innovators, who are using exciting technology to tackle major health challenges and making a real difference in the world. WARNING – NOT TO BE MISSED
Advanced manufacturing is transforming how things are made through digital technologies such as 3D printing & AI. Visit the I-Form area to see a preview of the next industrial revolution in action, and meet the brilliant engineers who are driving the change and making it happen!
Ever wondered how bionic arms work? This interactive exhibit will allow you to control a game with the muscles of your arm, using the same techniques that are used to control bionic arms.
Get hands-on and explore engineering activities in our children’s make and do area. Build a bionic hand out of cardboard, or see how tall you can make a marshmallow structure.
Join us at UCD Lyons Farm to meet our Crop Robot and learn about the innovative technology we use to grow crops. Discover our self-driving tractor and slurry tanker, which are GPS-controlled for precise application of organic fertilisers. We grow wheat, barley, sunflowers, peas, beans, and lupins, using sensors to monitor crop health and reduce… Continue reading View our UCD Crop Robot and Self-Driving Tractor
