Students from Mr Laney’s Computer Technology class at Biddeford Regional Center of Technology visited the University of Maine on Friday, November 18, 2022. While on Campus, they worked with staff from the Foster Center of Innovation to visit several sites. The first stop of the day was the VEMI Lab where students immersed themselves in virtual reality and learned how virtual reality is being used to create adaptive experiences and help humans better navigate the environment. The next stop was at the Advanced Structures & Composites Center to see the world’s largest 3D printer and the Wind-Wave Oceaneering Lab. During lunch, the Foster Center worked with students to create, communicate, and commercialize new and innovative ideas. In the afternoon, students toured the brand new Ferland Engineering Education and Design Center. The last stop of the day was a lecture by a UMaine professor on adaptable electrical grid technology to efficiently deliver sustainable electricity to homes throughout the world.
