Techniques for Design and Fabrication is course that focuses on the realistic challenges of designing and building with technology, as well as the basic theory underlying how such systems work. The intent is to provide students with practical skills in electronics, fabrication, mechatronics, and materials selection and production, and is tailored to the requirements of the work done at the Media Lab. Rather than focusing on the low level workings of the tools used, we will point out at practical concerns and underlying rationale that drive the implementation and production of working prototypes and demos.
