This document describes a proposed mobile Fab Lab project by FabShop Technologies in Bangalore, India. The project aims to take innovation and digital fabrication tools closer to people by launching a Fab Lab on Wheels that can travel to different districts. The mobile lab would contain tools like a vinyl cutter, laser cutter, 3D printer, and CNC machines to help users design and prototype products. It seeks to eliminate traditional manufacturing skills barriers and support collaboration. The goals are to launch the mobile lab in 15 districts over 3 years, targeting 50,000 audiences annually across Karnataka and Tamil Nadu initially and expanding pan-India. The project expects to support 1,500 prototypes and 15 entrepreneurs, generating potential annual revenue of Rs.
