Lab building · an achievement beyond a single project
From my room-lab to a shared laboratory
Before we had a dedicated laboratory, my room became one. The electronics setup was already there; over time, components, prototypes, robots and tools filled the space. It became a place where our team could build, test, debug and document its work.
What mattered was not the size of the room. It was making a place where an idea could keep moving: a table to work on, parts to experiment with, and people willing to come back when something failed.
In 2025, the university allocated a dedicated room for the Robotics and Smart System Design Lab. I helped plan the central working table, coordinate fabrication with the workshop and move our equipment into the new space.
I consider that transition an important part of my professional work. Together with my supervisor and teammates, I helped turn an informal workspace into a shared environment that other students could use. It was not only a move; it was the beginning of something that could continue beyond us.

The photographs show different stages of the workspace, not a single moving day.
For years, my room was more than a place to live: it was where components gathered, prototypes took shape and our team returned to unfinished work. In 2025, we moved that effort into a dedicated RSSDL laboratory. Helping organize the new workspace is one of the professional achievements I value most.
My electronics workspace gradually became a place for the team’s projects. Components, robots and unfinished assemblies shared the same room, and we kept returning to build, test and debug them. Making that work possible was part of the engineering.
