At the intersection of technology, engineering, and art, this class at the ATLAS institute will get you "hands-on" with your tech and expand your knowledge in the field of Human-Computer interaction. The course will take students on a tour of the ATLAS labs, while students will have the opportunity to participate in hands-on building and gain practical experience in the latest technologies and techniques in the human-computer interaction field. Learn the fundamentals of programming, circuitry, 3D design and printing in a lively, project-driven environment. Team up and create something completely new, such as an electronic musical instrument, a kinetic art installation, a piece of interactive clothing or a computerized toy. Students will be led through a series of design challenges and lab tours aimed at learning the limits of maker technologies and be able to let your imagination run wild as you create your own mini world. Enjoy the autonomy to freely design, build, test, and interact with your creations. Building awesome stuff with tech and art has never been more fun, or more approachable. This class is perfect for students who are interested in design, toys, games, and music, or who are simply curious about the potential of technology to make a positive impact on our world.
