Abstract
Design is an art and art is a design. Today, all industrial products are the result of a design process. Industrial design is a multi-disciplinary field of study, which has a goal to create and produce new objects and it focuses on designing of products by using knowledge related with applied science as well as applied arts and various engineering disciplines. Academic programs related to industrial design focus on achieving the proper balance between practicality and aesthetic pleasure. Courses may include graphic and industrial design basics, manufacturing, modelling and visualization, environmental and human interaction in design. Computer aided design software are strongly emphasized. Students constantly observe, model and test their creations. They investigate the optimal ways to design virtually any type of products, including computer interfaces, appliances, furniture, transportation and recreational items. The developments of new interactive technologies have inevitably affected to education of design and art in recent years. VR is an interdisciplinary emerging high technology. VR interfaces, interaction techniques, and devices have been improved greatly in order to provide more natural and obvious modes of interaction and motivational elements and it is an integrated technology combining; 3D graphics, human-computer interaction, sensor, simulation, display, artificial intelligence and network parallel processing. This study presents notable VR systems have been developed for education and the methods of design, such as modelling and visualization. Keywords: industrial design, interactive technologies, modelling and visualization, environmental and human interaction, virtual reality
Highlights
All industrial products are produced by the design process
The profession of industrial design is linked to the growth of industrialisation and mechanisation that began with the industrial revolution in United Kingdom in the mid 18th century
The profession of industrial design has begun to be recognized as a primary element for all the competitive countries and firms
Summary
All industrial products are produced by the design process. Industrial design is a specific field of art and technology, which has a goal to create and produce object. This can be done in combination with technology and art fields and industrial designers must deal with product functionality and appearance, and they have to ensure user satisfaction related with product. Along with Bauhaus, scientific knowledge began to gain importance on this combination (Findeli, 2001), and the transition of skills towards knowledge has played a major role in the development of industrial design education. Design and industries based on it; include more complex elements in terms of form, function, material and manufacturing. The aim of the study is to determine the most basic and the most probable effects of virtual reality technology which is today's most advanced technology on industrial design education for near future
