Application-Led Control Engineering
ACE-Lab is built around an application-led learning philosophy that connects theory, practice and engineering judgement to create a more effective control-engineering learning experience.
ACE-Lab Rigs
Portable, modular hardware for developing microcontroller, electronics and measurement skills using ACE-Lab (Base + Sense), with actuators added via ACE-Lab (Actuate) for complete closed-loop control-system design.
ACE-Lab (Base + Sense) Develop microcontroller basics, build simple breadboard circuits and explore measurement.
ACE-Lab (Actuate) Adds actuators to ACE-Lab (Base + Sense) for complete closed-loop control-system design and testing.Event details and registrationACE-Lab Workshops
Free, hands-on 2026 sessions using MATLAB, Simulink and portable ACE-Lab hardware to move from engineering requirements through controller design, implementation, testing and validation on a real system.
