Collector lauds ‘Lab on Wheels’ for bringing free digital education directly to students

Collector A. Shyam Prasad praised the "Lab on Wheels" venture by Infosys and APSSDC, highlighting its role in providing free digital education directly to students. The mobile laboratory, launched in Kothacheruvu, Sri Sathya Sai district, aims to bridge the gap between theoretical learning and modern technical skills. Shyam Prasad emphasized that students should acquire practical knowledge to adapt to changing times, specifically in electronics, robotics, microcontrollers, and 3D printing.

The initiative will offer hands-on training in these areas, enabling students to understand electronic components, sensors, LEDs, motors, switches, and basic circuit designing. Furthermore, the lab will introduce robotics concepts such as assembly, sensor integration, motor control, and automation, fostering logical thinking through small robotic projects.

Lastly, the mobile lab will teach 3D printing skills, including digital design, 3D modelling, and custom prototyping, bridging the gap between theory and industry-required practical skills.
