Objectives
The curricular unit aims to deepen knowledge regarding technologies involving Digital Media. Seminars will present some of the most relevant technologies to carry out a project, while also acquiring skills and competences in the process of developing a concrete proposal. As a result, they are able to select and integrate technologies in Digital Media projects.
Program (topics for seminars - example)
- Introduction to Digital Media Technologies
- Programming Environments (Processing and openFrameworks)
- Technologies for Augmented and Virtual Reality Interaction
- Machine Learning/Deep Learning
- Computer Graphics
- IoT and Sensors
- Sound Computing
- Technology integration in Digital Media projects
Teaching
