The lab, which will cost €150,000 to establish, will be available to students in MU’s in robotics and intelligent devices, electronic engineering and computer science degree programmes. They will have access to innovative technologies and equipment used by engineers from Intel and other companies, giving them practical experience of how the technologies can be applied outside the classroom.
“Robotics and AI are creating new industries, making agriculture more sustainable and revolutionising transportation,” said Prof Gerry Lacey, head of engineering at Maynooth University. “We are excited that Intel’s support will help our students to become leaders in creating this new future.” The new lab came out of a partnership struck between Maynooth University and Intel a number of years ago. A memorandum of understanding signed in 2019 has enabled the creation of a strategic research and innovation partnership.
