Welcome!

Welcome to MATRIX Labs: Makerspace Advancements Through Research, Innovation, and Cross-Collaboration! We aim to develop intelligent systems to manage and maintain makerspaces.

Here are examples of problems we work on:

1. How to train users and trainers for safe operations within a makerspace? Example: How to design cloud-based and hands-on learning experiences along with the training’s validation?

2. How to collect and analyze data from makerspaces for efficient operations of the space and equipment within a makerspace? (example: How to develop a queuing system for tools within makerspace).

3. How can we support and manage the culture of student-run organizations staffing the makerspace with a focus on volunteers who run the makerspaces?
