The designer's use and application of computer modelling is extended in this unit for the purposes of digital production and manufacture. Parametric Solid modelling software CAD is further used and applied to create form and instructions to produce. The required application of technical communication to Australian and international standards is established. Rapid prototype techniques studied include Object printing, laser cutting and profile shaping. The design potential of different methods of manufacture are studied through; examination of iconic designs, tactile experience, observation, research and creative experimentation. -- Course Website
