Description

This course provides an introduction to the field of interaction design, and on developing technical, theoretical and creative skills in the development of interactive systems - with a focus on tangible and embodied interactions (i.e. objects and wearables). Human-centred design methods are used to research real-world problems, situations and opportunities for the implementation of innovative interactive designs.

You will develop your knowledge of the theory of electronics, circuit design, and computer programming and apply this to the design, production and evaluation of a functioning, interactive object.
