This MIT OpenCourseWare offers selected lecture notes, and details of projects and assignments taken from the Prototypes to products undergraduate course taught in the Autumn of 2005.
For students and teams who have started a sustainable-development project in D-Lab (SP.776), Product Engineering Processes (2.009), or elsewhere, this class provides a setting to continue developing projects for field implementation. Topics covered include prototyping techniques, materials selection, design-for-manufacturing, field-testing, and project management. All classwork will directly relate to the students’ projects, and the instructor will consult on the projects during the weekly lab time. There are no exams and teams are encouraged to enroll together.
Special software is required to use some of the files in this course: .rm.
