    Description

    Lab supervisor:  
    Miłosz Chrzan, MSc 
    Zabrze

    The laboratory enables computer-aided design and prototyping of electronic and automation circuits for biomechatronic devices. Thanks to modern measuring equipment and computer software, it is possible to design the desired circuit or device with the preliminary possibility of testing its operation.

    The laboratory is equipped with advanced software for the design and programming of electronic devices (AUTODESK FUSION 360, LabVIEW, Visual Studio), measuring equipment for the creation of functional prototypes, a wide range of microcontrollers and programmable controllers ready to be implemented in the devices designed.

    Research offer:
    -Rental of high-performance workstations with commercial software Autodesk Fusion 360, LabVIEW
    -Rental of NI Elvis III measurement equipment, NI VirtualBench, thermal imaging camera, spectrum analyser
    -Programmable controllers and microcontrollers hire
    -Weller soldering stations hire

    Autodesk Fusion 360 commercial licence
    Autodesk Fusion 360 is a cloud-based 3D solid modelling, CAD, CAM and PCB software platform for product design and end-to-end manufacturing. The platform includes a 3D modelling module, strength simulation, visualisation, computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), as well as tools for freeform modelling, 2D drafting and sheet metal design.
