en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Public Services & Commercial (PS&C) division of Novus UK will deliver the Digital Lab (Digi-Lab) project for the university, integrating advanced digital technologies within a specially designed collaborative environment. The facility is scheduled for completion in June 2026 and will feature a Proto Hologram system, a virtual reality lab, drone technology, a marker-based motion capture system, a graphics processing unit lab, and 3D immersive wall and floor installations.
The project involves a comprehensive transformation of two adjacent buildings into a unified, high-performance learning environment. This includes installing a new canopy structure to connect the two buildings, complete internal demolition, a new roof structure, stairwell expansion, and full mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) installations. Additionally, specialized floor, wall, and ceiling finishes will be installed to meet the acoustic performance required for digital applications, along with associated external and landscaping works.
The integration of energy-saving measures will ensure the campus is resilient, sustainable, and efficient. Improvements to the building envelope, combined with an air quality management system, will create a healthy learning environment that fosters innovation while aligning with the university's sustainability strategy, reducing energy demand, and supporting advanced digital teaching and research.
The Digital Lab will create a dedicated space for students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines. Here, students will learn digital skills, data analysis, virtual reality, and augmented reality technologies, and leverage the benefits of artificial intelligence to prepare for future technologies, ensuring graduates are ready for the demands of the workplace.
