Maker Space Lab

There is a new maker space lab for engineering students in the new Brown-Kopel engineering student center (across Broun). The lab is open to all engineering students. The lab has a NI Elvis 3 board I helped setting up recently. You will need to use a browser that allows certain communication protocols in real time to operate that board. It is a newer version of the NI Elvis II board we use in Elec 2210 lab.

They also have a part store:

and electronics shop:
