Sketching with Hardware: Prototyping Tangible AI

The summer school on Sketching with Hardware: Prototyping Tangible Artificial Intelligence is a comprehensive program designed to introduce participants to the exciting world of hardware prototyping for tangible AI projects. We will cover the basics of hardware prototyping, including how to use microcontrollers, sensors, and actuators to create interactive and responsive physical systems. Participants will also learn how to use prototyping techniques to test their ideas quickly. The summer school will provide hands-on experience for participants to apply their learning and bring their AI projects to life. By the end of the summer school, participants will have a solid understanding of the hardware sketching process and be well-equipped to prototype their AI projects. This summer school is suitable for those interested in learning more about hardware prototyping and tangible AI.

Further Information

Address: Frauenlobstraße 7A, 80337 München

From Hamburg Dammtor (train station next to the CHI’23 venue) you can take a direct train to Munich (shortest travel time: 5h 55 min), tickets are offered by Deutsche Bahn. The door-to-door travel time via train can not be undercut by using a plane, but of course, it is possible also to take the plane, see Google flights info.

To get from Munich Central Station to the event location, it is a 21 min walk; get directions here. As an alternative, you can take the U1, U2, 16, 17, 18 (1 min ride time) from Munich Central Station to Sendlinger Tor and, a 6-minute walk.

To use the bus and metro, use the MVG Fahrinfo München App. A day ticket for the “M” region (all of Munich but the Airport) costs 8.80 EUR per day.
