Course Lead · TU Graz Smart Factory & MINKT Lab


In August 2023, I led a 10-day course for gifted secondary school students. Classes ran from 9:00 to 14:00 between 14 and 28 August at TU Graz's Smart Factory and MINKT Lab. The course was part of the IV-MINT-Stipendium für High-Potentials aus der Ukraine programme, organised with the Industriellenvereinigung and the University of Vienna (Maths+).
I taught students to model parts in Autodesk Fusion 360, add electronics and microcontrollers to their designs, and use machine-learning tools in the design process.
By the end of the course, the students had made their own 3D-printed projects and received certificates of completion.
RoboHand
One of the student projects was RoboHand, a 3D-printed robotic hand driven by servos. Students worked on its mechanics and embedded control. The hardware files and firmware are open-source.
