An intense and in-depth exploration of the consequences of the 4th industrial revolution. Guest speakers will introduce you with a variety of domains where this revolution has an impact. In teams you develop a project that incorporates Industry 4.0 methods and techniques. 

 

An introduction to the characteristics of the industry 4.0. 

After mechanisation, mass production and automation, now computation and the “Internet of things” are transforming how we design and create. Industry 4.0 concepts such as tracking devices, Big Data, and Artificial Intelligence are now commonplace in our worldwide battle against the coronavirus. While this rapid transformation is blurring the boundaries between physical, digital and biological realms, the automated algorithms are driving the “smart factory”. Design as we know it will change forever. So, when our tools start talking back to us, what are the strategies for co-creation with systems that are smart by design?

Remark: intensive course week in the beginning of the second semester
