Crafting Fashion with Robots
Crafting Fashion with Robots aims at exploring cross-disciplinary approaches and applications in the design of new on-demand fashion accessories, by using a modified anthropomorphic robotic arm. To this end, the project proposes a partnership between ATOMLab, a manufacturing company in the field of footwear design, and WeMake, an innovative community enterprise fully engaged in the maker movement and led by Zoe Romano.
What Happens Next?
On top of the financial support, the winners will follow a 9 month acceleration process in the 4 local hubs, where they will be comprehensively mentored to test, prototype and finally launch their innovations.
