This is a very cool development. The National Center for State Courts (NCSC) has created an innovation lab that allows court leaders to observe and test the latest court technology. The lab grew of a recognition that courthouse space needs to be used more creatively in order to provide meaningful access to users.
The lab’s focus extends beyond the courtroom, with prototype “community access points” for public users who will be accessing court services from another location, as well as advanced conference rooms and huddle spaces.
Kudos to the NCSC for embracing the challenges of innovation. I’ll look forward to seeing how these technologies are incorporated by the courts in the coming years.
