The workshops


2 workshops with demonstrations and fun activities in the form of practical sessions and experiments (vacuum bell, etc.) to help our visitors understand physical phenomena.
It’s also an opportunity to learn about the vast applications of vacuum, and the products that are designed according to the pressures involved.
Several sessions will be organised each day.

LaBoMaP and LISPEN, two Arts et Métiers Sciences and Technologies laboratories, invite you to experiment with the combination of the Void and the Virtual:

  • CARA: Augmented Reality (AR) assisted design for vacuum deposition chambers.
  • Virtual PVD: Multi-scale immersion (VR) in the deposition process.


    By means of a few small experiments you will discover some of the properties of the vacuum:

    • Changes in the state of matter
    • The forces at work
    • Sound propagation in a vacuum

    These properties will enable us to address the many applications made possible in industry.
