- Advanced training: 3D modeling, circuit desing, embedded programming, CNC advanced
3. Project
- 'Idea to Reality' project:
A program that anyone from student to adult can apply with their dream idea so that we can evaluate the possibility in the market.
If it approved, we invest our resources and work with the applicant to make it happens. After that, we try the market together and
share its profit.
