The lab employs design thinking, tinkering and making methodology—a playful, exploratory learning approach—coupled with educational robotics, encouraging participants to engage in mini-projects using robotics kits. The educational approaches range according to the students’ age, while centring around a meaningful combination of DIY projects that expose fundamental principles and activities focused on the thoughtful application of higher-level technological advancements, such as edge-AI and ML. Whereas in the first case, the instruments involved include laser cutting machine, CNC and 3D printing (Snapmaker, Photon Mono SE), breadboards, electronic components, modules, sensors, microcontroller based boards (Arduino UNO, Micro:bit, Raspberry), 3D scanner (Revopoint Mini) as well as a wide range of recycled materials, (e.g. plastic bottles, cardboard, wires, etc), in the second case, the range of the instruments includes the boards enabling the actual implementation of edge-AI projects (e.g. Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense) and fully functional more advanced one (e.g. NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano). In addition, the lab offers sessions for educational and exploratory activities involving a wide range of AR and VR tools, including Oculus Quest Visors, Leap Motion Controller, Octagon Studio AR cards, CoSpaces EDU platform, and Sandbox AR. These activities are structured into two progressive levels, each building upon the other to enhance learners' skills gradually.
Located at EU-Track headquarters in Terracina (Central Italy), the lab holds sessions, ensuring personalised attention and an encouraging, creative atmosphere. Events like “Enchanted Experiments” inspired by Harry Potter Saga and "Toys come to life", inspired by The Nutcracker by Tchaikovsky, offer memorable, immersive experiences, designed for young students to combine imagination, creativity, storytelling and STEAM subjects. We organise every year the events in the framework of the STEM Discovery Campaign.
Beyond just experimentation, EU-Track emphasises multidisciplinary integration, melding science, technology, arts, and math, to cultivate creativity, problem-solving, and digital fluency in a playful environment. We are also a hub for education and mobility opportunities, reflecting a blend of innovation, training, and community outreach.
