Regional collaboration

Built together with instructors and students across Latin America

This lab does not work in isolation. Its learning culture is strengthened by exchange with other instructors, labs and students from the LATAM network, sharing feedback, methods, inspiration and distributed collaboration.

Connections with Fab Lat, Fab Women and regional Fab Lab communities.
Collective learning between instructors, graduates and current students.
Projects enriched by cross-country references, critique and shared experimentation.
Collaborative documentation

Group Assignments 2026

A shared record of experiments, prototypes and technical decisions developed across the Fab Academy process, presented with the same contemporary visual language as the rest of the site.

Each week gathers evidence of collaborative process, technical iteration and collective learning, making the group work feel intentionally integrated with the rest of the site instead of detached from it.

Machine Week

Group assignment mechanical design:

  • Design a machine that includes mechanism+actuation+automation+application
  • Build the mechanical parts and operate it manually
  • Document the group project and your individual contribution

Group assignment machine design:

  • Actuate and automate your machine
  • Document the group project and your individual contribution
Go to the Machine groups
