Revision as of 18:39, 14 October 2019
Werkmodul
Printed Interfaces
Instructor: Clemens Wegener
Credits: 6 ECTS, 3 SWS
Capacity: max. 12 students
Language: Deutsch/English by preference
Location: Marienstrasse 7B, R002
First Meeting: TBA
Description
Printed Electronics can turn everyday objects into interfaces for the digital world. We will use screen printing with conductive ink to print our own designs on paper, leather, or glass and use them as buttons or slider with the help of microcontrollers such as Arduino. This way we we create objects which serve as input devices for digital functionalities. We will first take a look at the basic qualities and possibilities of printed electronics, as well as the characteristics of the tools we are going to use. Here we focus on the screen printing methods and the concept of capacitive sensing with Arduino. Students will design their own objects which we will print on and connect to an Arduino.
Admission requirements
Knowledge in Hard- and Software would be appreciated, but is not a requirement. For buying electronic components, a little budget of 20€ to 30€ is neccessary. Of course you can keep your manufactured works. Please send a motivational letter to clemens.wegener (at) uni-weimar (dot)de.
Evaluation
Successful completion of the course is dependent on regular attendance, active participation, completion of assignments, delivery of a relevant semester prototype and documentation. Please refer to the Evaluation Rubric for more details.
