The Hub

Wheelchair accessible

Presented by FLEET*, Computing Futures is a week-long interactive exhibition at the Hub, exploring how computers have evolved and the limits of current technologies. Get excited about the history of computing and explore what’s next in low-energy electronics, with science demonstrations and hands-on activities. Learn about the Internet of Things (IoT), how many devices connect to the web (*hint, a lot!), changes in microchip transistors and more at this electrifying exhibit with a side of science.

Delve into Computing Futures

Exhibition

Visit the University of Melbourne’s Interaction Design Lab exhibition to get a glimpse into the future of product design and interactive systems using smart technologies. Discover what artificial intelligence can learn about you by just looking at your face, how to interact with digital content using only eye movement, and how augmented reality can provide you with a close-up look at your insides. Experience the future of interfaces in this hands-on high-tech display.

The future of interfaces

Run by City of Melbourne Libraries, our Pop-up knowledge library in the Hub will help you find the answer to any, &#8216;so, what if?&#8217; question this week of wonder might inspire. Along with a curated book collection, the library features a chill-out lounge, talks by local historians and the opportunity for readers to examine and ponder the world’s big ideas. Find a quiet space for reflection and discovery anytime of the day or evening at the library during Melbourne Knowledge Week.
