Lab Resources
The Digital Lab is open 24/7 for students and researchers to use and offers a selection of permanently installed equipment and tools that may be borrowed by agreement with Skylab staff. The computers in the lab are free to use, provided you have a valid DTU login. Please contact us, if you wish to install software on these machines.

We have contact with many organizations offering products and services with the possibility to get discounted prices for students and startup companies. If you would like to talk about manufacturing, data handling or cloud services for example, reach out to us with a summary of what you are looking for.
How to join or use the facility
Get in touch by email (thovai@dtu.dk) or by the form "Get Tech Support" with an outline of your project before you use the lab, or if you have a general enquiry.
Please note that it is not possible to book the lab for e.g. private meetings.
