Techniquest

The KLA Lab

Join us for an exciting hands-on lab workshop to explore the fascinating world of semiconductors, and discover how tiny technology powers our modern world.

Build a model of a computer chip, uncovering the amazing journey from sand to microchip, and delve into the nano-scales to see just how small — and powerful — these chips can be.

We’ll also take a peek under the hood of the world’s most popular device, the mobile phone, and wrap up with an interactive session controlling robots, offering a glimpse into the future of robotics and their potential to transform our world!
