CoLab

CoLab is a web-based design tool that supports understanding and collaboration between industrial designers and engineering designers during new product development (NPD). CoLab has been created with data produced during a Loughborough Design School PhD that was undertaken by Dr Eujin Pei and joint supervised by Dr Mark Evans (with a background in industrial design) and Dr Ian Campbell (with a background in engineering design). Translation of the PhD into the CoLab website was made possible by HE STEM funding and support from the EngCETL (forerunner to CEDE).
