Artefact Labs
Established in 2012, the threefold Artefact Lab of the CSMC comprises both high-performance stationary equipment and mobile devices. This makes it possible to bring our expertise in non-destructive material analyses to the places where the artefacts are kept without exposing them to the hazards of transportation. We continually update and improve our instrumentation to expand not only the range of portable equipment but also of methodologies.
Computer Science Labs
Computer science plays a central role at the CSMC. Our material- and content-oriented approach to written artefacts, which generates large amounts of data, opens up the opportunity to harness the potential of new developments in artificial intelligence and virtual reality for manuscript research. In our Computer Science Labs, we are developing an advanced data infrastructure, interactive applications, and customised software tools that provide valuable services to researchers worldwide.
