Maker Space

Maker Space

Controlled-access technical platform for innovation allowing to move from an idea to its material concretisation and its characterisation. Developed over 1000 m2, this space is divided into several zones equipped with materials contributing to prototype development and experiments in the strategic activity areas of the Institute such as: Bioinspiration, Manufacturing, Smart Home, Screenplay, Numerical simulation, etc.

The SCIC develops most of its activities under research collaboration contracts, but also provides business services such as catalog services, tailor-made services, animation and technological demonstration services.

The SCIC also supports academic research (scientific production) and participates in training students to use equipment and technologies.
