The Music and Entertainment Technology Laboratory (MET-lab) is devoted to research in digital media technologies that will shape the future of entertainment, especially in the areas of sound and music. The MET-lab's primary research focuses on the following music and entertainment applications:

• Music production and playback technology
• Machine listening and music information retrieval
• New music interfaces

Among the research projects supported by the MET-lab are musically-aware humanoid robots, the magnetic resonator piano, multi-touch music interfaces, and many more. The MET-lab is also heavily involved in outreach programs for K-12 students and hosts the Summer Music Technology program, a one-week learning experience for high school students.
