Description of the learning unit
|
This unit introduces teachers and students to bio-inspiration in a multidisciplinary learning process while incorporating Augmented Reality (AR) for a more immersive and interactive experience.
- Students will explore how nature inspires solutions in biomedicine, robotics, and prosthetics, using AR simulations to visualize bio-inspired technologies in human body applications.
- AR tools will allow users to interact with 3D models of bionic limbs, artificial organs, and biomimetic materials.
- Through AR-based activities, students will visualize and manipulate molecular structures, simulate biomechanics, and observe nature’s influence on human innovations.
