This course allows students to explore the methods and approaches to high-level prototyping of digital systems. Situated on the intersection of computer graphics programming and interactive systems design, this class teaches students to analyze interactive systems, evaluate their components, and strategize their customization and improvement. Students will create their own programmed interactive graphical systems, collect, store and visualize data, and evaluate opportunities for other applications of computer graphics technologies in interactive digital systems.

This course is open only to students who have been admitted to SMC's Bachelor of Science program in Interaction Design. See ixd.smc.edu for more information.
