About this course:
Digital Design is about designing in digital space so the created content can be displayed and seen on a digital device. With the availability of high computing power, designers can quickly create designs in digital space before actual deployment.
In this online course, you will learn the fundamental concepts of a wide variety of digital design technology and you will have the opportunity to create your own digital designs and animate them as well. The course focuses on creating 3D objects using a computer-aided design package, creating real-life physical simulations, and then combining the two techniques to create rendered animations. It will also introduce virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) applications.
This course allows you to get hands-on experience with different design tools so that the various outputs can be combined in a systematic way. So get started to experience this excitement of creating your own designs now whether it be for continuing education or as a hobby.

At the end of the course, you will be able to:

perform physical simulations of real-life situations that are expressed mathematically

manipulate and animate static people so that they have realistic motions

make digitized people interact with 3D objects

apply your skills in a wide variety of applications such as manufacturing, robotics, movies, games, toys, and many others

The online course is an introduction to digital design technology. It allows you to understand the basics of digital design and helps you develop skills from computer-aided design to animation covering topics such as rigging, keyframing, rendering, and more.
