Description
This course is an introduction to "personal digital fabrication" using the UW-Stout Discovery Center Fab Lab, modeled after the Fab Lab at the Massachusetts Institute Of Technology (MIT) Center for Bits and Atoms (CBA) http://www.cba.mit.edu/projects . It is designed for innovators, inventors, entrepreneurs, artists, and individuals allowing people to move from ideas into production using modern digital equipment. Students will use laser cutters, 3-D printers, vinyl cutters, ShopBot CNC routers, desktop milling machines and other digital and analog tools in order to fabricate and test their design projects. The program is designed to allow students to explore their interests in a variety of fields including graphic design, art, business, computer-assisted design (CAD), physical and natural science, mathematics, and engineering and others.
