<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Following diverse human-centered research methodologies, ideas are developed<\/strong> or co-developed<\/strong> as working<\/strong> prototypes<\/strong> with physical and digital components in the Physical Computing Lab. This enables researchers to rapidly test them and then embed them in more complex intelligent systems<\/strong>, or to (co-)develop them as tangible or wearable artefacts<\/strong> for\/with their end-users<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
