This paper outlines and describes a workshop designed for presenting and teaching a variety of computational concepts to novice students of architecture. While the ostensible purpose is the building of a cheap scanner the workshop facilitates a variety of techniques like model--making, basics of robotics or 3D--point--clouds. Novice students can discover a broad range of computational technologies both in hardware and software over a short period of time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
