DA3304 Rapid Prototyping for the Warfighter
The proliferation of new, inexpensive, easy-to-use technologies has dramatically lowered the barrier to technology exploration. This new frontier allows the user an unprecedented ability to design new solutions to wicked problems and to quickly iterate over new and exciting alternatives. Rapid prototyping leverages low-cost, low-resolution models of potential solutions to drive the processes of design and innovation. This course introduces a prototyping methodology for this exploration, requires hands-on active engagement with rapid prototyping, investigates other labs on and off campus that are engaged in prototyping efforts, and explores how this alternative approach might impact students’ future military engagements.
