The University of Malta will be hosting an international workshop titled ‘Design for Additive Manufacturing: Future Interactive Devices’. This workshop is organised as part of the PRIME-VR2 project. The scope of this project is to develop an innovative bespoke controller and supporting platform to improve the user-experience of people with limited dexterity in their hands to regain/improve their abilities, in a Virtual-Reality (VR)-based serious games environment.

The workshop is planned to be held in a hybrid mode (partially physical, partially on-line) in Valletta, Malta, between the 17th and 18th March 2022. It will consist of a number of round-table discussions on a number of themes and related areas:

• Defining the Characteristics of Future Interactive Devices
• Principles to successfully Design, Fabricate and Test Future Interactive Devices
• Capturing of User Data for Bespoke Additive Manufacturing
• Embedding Electronics in 3D Printed Product
• Computational Design Approaches for Additive Manufacturing
• High Quality Experiences of 3D Printed Interactive Devices: Users’ Expectations and Evaluation
• Ergonomic Testing of hand-held Additive Manufacturing Products
• Customisation vs mass production – the challenges of commercialisation

This event is supported by IED.
