About The Beach Lab
The The Beach Lab Makerspace in Munich, Bavaria, Germany, Germany, is a dedicated innovation centre for students, engineers, and creative professionals. it combines professional-grade fabrication equipment — including 3D printers, laser cutters, and microcontroller development kits — with a supportive community of makers and mentors. The lab actively supports the STEM ecosystem in Bavaria by hosting workshops on topics ranging from robotics and AI to sustainable design and product development. Entrepreneurs benefit from rapid prototyping capabilities that compress the distance between idea and market-ready product. The Beach Lab stands as proof that when tools, knowledge, and community come together, extraordinary things are built.
Description
Unlike traditional mobile labs, where tools are carried, but can only be used when the vehicle is stopped, structural engineering and seismic design techniques used for tall buildings -like tension cables and damping- were applied to design a lightweight structure that allows The Beach Lab to use digital fabrication tools on the go.
The foldable nature of The Tesseract allows to switch from mobile to static lab. This gives the flexibility to to develop educational programs and workshops when required, optimizing the resources when they are not needed. Incidentally it created an interesting concept of unallocated lab, not necessarily tied to a particular city.
