Kursinnehåll
In the course, digital, physical and service prototypes are designed and developed from a user perspective. The course covers advanced prototyping techniques that combine software, hardware and manufacturing technology that enable the rapid development of prototypes. The following prototyping techniques are included:
- Prototyping on different screens (e.g. computer, mobile)
- Prototyping for different senses (e.g. movements, voice, vision)
- Microcomputers (e.g. Arduino, RaspberryPi)
- Digital manufacturing (3D printing, laser cutting)
- Physical prototyping (e.g. wood, plastics)
