Generative AI + 3D Printing
Design with AI, Print in Reality
Ages: 12 and up
Duration: 3 hours/day, 5 days (Monday-Friday)
Sessions: Morning (9am-12pm) or Afternoon (1pm-4pm)
About This Camp
Discover the exciting intersection of artificial intelligence and digital fabrication! This camp introduces campers to cutting-edge generative AI tools and shows them how to use these technologies to create unique 3D designs that can be brought to life through 3D printing.
Campers will learn how to prompt AI systems to generate creative designs, refine those designs for 3D printing, and walk away with their own AI-assisted creations as physical objects.
What You'll Learn
- Introduction to generative AI and how it works
- Using AI tools for creative design and ideation
- Prompting techniques to get better AI-generated results
- Converting AI designs into 3D printable models
- Fundamentals of 3D printing technology
- Design iteration and refinement process
- Basic coding concepts for AI interaction
Requirements
- Windows or Mac computer (no Chromebooks)
- Basic computer skills
- Some coding experience helpful but not required
What to Expect
By the end of the week, each camper will have:
- Created multiple AI-generated designs
- Learned to evaluate and refine AI outputs
- Printed at least one AI-assisted 3D creation to take home
- Gained hands-on experience with emerging AI technology
