Dr. B\u0103il\u0103<\/b>:<\/i><\/b> One of the greatest challenges in teaching technical courses is bridging the gap between theory and practice, especially when dealing with complex engineering concepts. Students often encounter a large number of formulas and theories that can feel abstract without immediate practical application. Solutions such as using equipment combined with Augmented Reality (AR) allow for real-time visualization of complex phenomena and a better understanding of how formulas apply in practical scenarios. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t

Q: Do you think incorporating Augmented Reality (AR) to equipment like this can help bridge the gap between theory and practice? What improvements could be made to industrial design education, for example? (H2) <\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t

Dr. B\u0105il\u0103:<\/b> Absolutely. For example, in the AMAZE project that we developed in collaboration with EDIBON, the combination of Augmented Reality (AR) platforms with 3D printers and <\/span><\/i>technical equipment<\/i><\/b> has allowed students to design new parts using CAD\/CAM\/CAE software, visually and interactively simulate the manufacturing process, evaluate equipment performance, test new prototypes, and <\/span><\/i>analyze mechanical systems<\/i><\/b>. This provides students with a comprehensive understanding in an engaging and highly educational way. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

For instance, with AR, students have been able to explore the internal design of a mechanical part, understand how different forces act on it, and even make real-time adjustments to optimize its performance. This transforms education by allowing students not only to learn formulas but also to see their practical application, acquiring knowledge in a highly interactive and effective way. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t
