Class
In the last few years, the physical world and the digital realm are overlapping ever more easily. Games and services like Pokémon Go and Waze redefine how we act in in the urban settings. Specifically, Augmented Reality provides new ways of not only interacting but shaping our environment. Form IKEAs AR App which visualizing furniture from the catalogue as in overlay in your living room, to AR enhanced assembly in factories and laboratories this technology is finding its way to consumers and industries alike.
This seminar will explore the possibilities of utilizing Microsoft Hololense and smartphones in architectural design and construction to bring digital models to reality. Initially, the participants will interact with digital models with hand gestures to make design decisions and then build them with Lego bricks guided by the AR overlay.
The final assignment will take the students to work in 2 groups to fabricate and assemble 1:1 prototypes in two directions: (A) participants will utilize traditional tools such as handsaw and power drill aided by Augmented Reality to build a complex object and (B) identical repetitive elements like mosaic tiles will be planced in a sophisticated manner using AR. This will continue work that has been done in previous seminars and prototypes realized at dMA.
An introduction to Fologram, a plug-in to Rhino Grasshopper to integrate the use of Hololense will be offered. Students are encouraged to take part in the dMA Grasshopper skill-drill 01. - 03. April. The seminar will be taught in English.
