A futuristic gallery concept, where visitors can experience emerging technologies first-hand and be inspired to imagine things to come. The Tech Test Zone Gallery houses a range of mind-blowing prototypes - all developed in collaboration with emerging designers, technology researchers, and innovative companies - in a 1,000-square-foot space. Visitors can catch glimpses of the future - hands-on - with innovative prototypes, some never before displayed in public. Through tablet computer feedback stations, they can become part of the design process by commenting on the models.
