Description
Federal Institute of Science and Technology (FISAT) has started a mini fabrication laboratory (will be called FabLab hereafter) with the support of A P J Abdul Kalam Technological University and Kerala start up mission (KSUM) in the college campus. FISAT Fablab will function as an auxiliary body of FISAT Science
and Technology Park and Research Centre. A Fabrication Laboratory (FabLab) is a technical prototyping platform for innovation and invention which aims at providing stimulus for students and serves as a platform for learning and innovation. It is a small scale workshop offering digital fabrication which empowers the students and other users to create smart devices for themselves which can be tailored to local or personal needs. The FabLab also becomes a medium for connecting to a global community of learners, educators, technologists, researchers and innovators – essentially becoming a self-sustaining global knowledge sharing network.
