No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups.

In a hands-on introduction to robotic fabrication, using Kuka Robot (KR Quantec Pro) at the Digital Fabrication Lab, School of Architecture and Industrial Design grad students will learn to program the robot to move, create custom tools for use, understand the capabilities and constraints of working with these tools, and how to integrate these new learning processes in their designs.

The Kuka installation is not yet complete, but Kuka will be in full operation just in time for the Spring 2016 semester.

Instructor Shani Shari with Associate Professor Russell Gentry
