General information about lab
The lab aims as a novel experimental teaching aid to the students of Instrumentation and Control Engineering at UG and PG levels in addition to the students from Manufacturing and Process Automation Engineering. The facilities in the lab are for teaching the fundamentals of the instrumentation including both the classical trainer based desktop kits and also the latest state of the art computer based systems on virtual instrumentation. Various types of transducers, data acquisition systems and Virtual Instrumentation using LabVIEW are the main components in the laboratory in addition to the computing facility. This lab has become famous among the students and many top ranking students have dream to work and get associated to this laboratory. Industrial consultancies are the next components being planned to be introduced in the lab.
