In this course, we are therefore focusing on this combination of Wearables and Machine Learning. We are aiming to offer the participants a full-framed knowledge base about the methods that form the current state of the art and give them the possibility to understand their application through practical exercises. Based on this, the participants will work on an Interdisciplinary Quick and Dirty Prototyping with different materials and techniques.
