Academic Level
The rapid intertwining of biology, autonomous systems, visualization, and rapid prototyping is challenging the traditional view of a product design process. This course aims to enable student-directed research and experimentation within the topical framework of Biodesign, Extended Intelligence, Extended Reality, and Manufacturing Futures. These four key technology areas are driving new industry processes which professional designers have yet to define. In this class, each student will determine a research direction, investigate, and document findings of their own methodology, tools and discoveries throughout their exploratory process.
