Latest revision as of 11:04, 16 January 2017
Fachmodul
Tangible Electronics: Physical Prototyping with Sensors and Actors
Instructor: Jason Reizner
Credits: 6 ECTS, 4 SWS
Capacity: max. 15 students
Language: English
Date: Donnerstag/Thursday, Attention schedule change: 15:15-18:30
Location: Marienstr. 7b, Room 103
First Meeting: 20 October 2016, 15:15
Description
Participants in this module will be introduced to the basics of electronics and physical computing through experimentation with discrete and integrated components, microcontrollers and optoelectric, electrochemical, mechanical, thermal and magnetic sensors and actors. Tasked with the conception, design and realization of functional prototypes using contemporary methods and processes for additive and subtractive manufacturing, printed electronics and laser direct structuring, students will develop the skills and competencies necessary to make the first leap in the transition of interaction concepts to digital devices and physical infrastructures.
Admission requirements
Concurrent enrollment in another IFD course offering, or with instructor permission.
Registration procedure
Registration for Winter Semester 2016/7 is now closed.
Evaluation
Successful completion of the course is dependent on regular attendance, active participation, completion of weekly assignments and delivery of a relevant semester project. Please refer to the Evaluation Rubric for more details.
