Block Week “Advanced Interaction Techniques” 2019

Block Week „Advanced Interaction Techniques“ has successfully taken place at KTU Kaunas on 08 -13th April.

Format: on-site

Target audience: Bachelor students

In this Block Week at KTU Kaunas, students from KTU Kaunas, FH Dortmund and IMC Krems came together to create concepts and prototypes for VR or AR marketing games. Marketing is one of the most prominent use for Augmented and Virtual Reality applications. Students had an opportunity to apply their knowledge in their respective field to overcome barriers and create concepts and early prototypes tailored to the needs and requirements of the companies. As they cover a wide range of disciplines, from Management, Marketing, Project Management to different aspects of Computer Science and Software Engineering, the created concepts and prototypes reflected this interdisciplinary approach. Besides a technical concept and prototype, the students also were creating a project plan, business model, marketing plan, etc. to fit the companies’ needs. This allowed the companies to get a first „hands-on“ experience with new technologies and offers the students an interdisciplinary and international learning experience mirroring the needs of later employment.
