Intelligent Machine Design Lab- Product Prototype Development

What it is about

You further develop a mechatronic product idea in this module and implement it as a near-series prototype. In the end you will be able to design, integrate and realize complex mechatronic systems in a product-like manner while considering product requirements and production aspects.

What you will be able to do

• Design and integration of complex mechatronic systems
• Implementation of a product idea into a functional prototype
• Development of business-case and production orientation
• Problem-solving abilities
• Teamwork and communication
• Time and project management
• Ability to shape market-ready products

What the module consists of

• Introductory classesKick-start of the project and introduction to requirements
• Weekly Milestone-ReviewsContinuous feedback on project progress
• WorkshopsMethods for product development, project planning, team communication and time management
• Project workSupervised and independent laboratory work as well as independent project work by the students

Teaching method

• Project workPractical implementation and development of the prototype
• Introductory sessionsStart and structuring of the project
• Milestone reviewsRegular feedback and progress control
• WorkshopsProvision of specific methods for product development and collaboration
• Supervised laboratory workEnables practical implementation and integration of the systems
