CONTENT & APPROACH

D2RP&O for Interactive Urban Furniture (IUF) will focus on the development of parametric designs for robotically 3D printing urban furniture using wood based biopolymers. The design takes functional, structural, material, and operational aspects into account. It integrates sensor-actuators into the urban furniture enabling direct and indirect communication with users via sounds, lights, etc. and web based apps, respectively. The focus will be on two main aspects of the design: 1. Parametric design and robotic production and 2. User-IUF interaction, sensor-actuator operation, and web-based communication. While BSc students focus on the 1st aspect, the MSc students will address both 1st and 2nd aspects and will develop designs in groups of 4-5 students subdivided in two subgroups addressing each one of the two aspects.
