Description

In this course we study the mathematics and implement algorithms for folding. We cover algorithms for linkage folding (e.g. knots and mechanical bars with hinges like robotic arms), origami and the folding of polyhedra (e.g. shape changing structures and spatial compression). In each lecture we will cover a particular folding algorithm and implement one partially in class and as homework. The resulting implementations we evaluate with real-life examples where possible.

The course will (unless COVID numbers go through the roof) take place in-person 

The first lecture on 25th of October will not take place because of the Vollversammlung

Learning

lectures and code assignments for every week. 

we have a double slot on mondays in which we first do the lecture and use the second slot to work on the assignments together

Examination

we have a mid-term exam which counts for 30% of the grade

and a final exam to cover the other 70% 

we furthermore give out a project, which offsets the final grade by +/- 1 point 

Dates

(Because of the "Vollversamlung" we start on November 1st with our first lecture)
