The symbolic ribbon was cut by the Rector of TUL Professor Krzysztof Jóźwik together with Professor Sławomir Wiak, Head of the Institute of Mechatronics and Information Systems, where the new laboratory is located.
The systems installed in the laboratory will allow for research and education in many areas, including areas related to the monitoring of people's vital functions - explains Prof. Wiak. - The laboratory, thanks to the well-thought-out configuration of the systems in it, will be an important support for the work carried out at Lodz University of Technology on the development of integrated mechatronic systems for building intelligent space inside the building.
The total cost of the investment amounted to PLN 2.5 million. It was co-financed from the budget of the Regional Operational Programme of the Lodz Voivodeship for the years 2014-2020, as part of the project "Interdisciplinary Research and Development Centre for Advanced Materials and Intelligent Management Systems in Construction 2020+ of Lodz University of Technology".
