What academia says
“
Attended the ACE Lab workshop in London and had a positive experience. ACE Lab is a great introductory platform for seeing how theories work in practice. From modelling and control design through to implementation, each step is clearly presented, making it easy to understand how everything comes together. The Simulink-based materials were particularly helpful. Simulink’s graphical approach makes the implementation process intuitive and accessible, even for those with limited practical experience. Overall, ACE Lab provides an engaging and effective way to bridge the gap between theory and practice.
