Think, Design, Create, Explore: Product Design, 3D Printing & Virtual Reality
Our course focuses on fascinating activities relating to 3D scanning, 3D printing and its design, as well as virtual reality.
Part 1: Simple design and 3D printing
Students are given an overview of the basics of 3D printing. They learn how to create simple 3D models. We use user-friendly software that allows participants to digitise their own creative ideas and prepare them for 3D printing.
There will be a live printing demonstration where students can experience the entire 3D printing process from modelling to physical realisation. This will provide an insight into how 3D printers work and the different steps of the printing process. Each participant has the opportunity to create her own 3D model and then turn it into reality under supervision.
Part 2: 3D scanning
The students have the opportunity to try out different 3D scanners and scan small objects on their own. This allows them to actively experience and understand the process of 3D scanning. After scanning, the aim is to process the captured 3D data. The participants learn how to integrate their scanned models into creative projects and how the objects can be produced using 3D printing.
Part 3: Virtual reality
Students are given an introduction to the fascinating world of virtual reality (VR). We explain how VR glasses work, their applications and how they revolutionise the experience of digital worlds. Participants have the opportunity to design products in the virtual world themselves using VR glasses and experience the product design of tomorrow.
