We\u2019ll discuss how to create highly customizable, efficient, and innovative products that appeal to diverse consumer needs. We&#8217;ll highlight practical examples and best practices, equipping you with the knowledge to integrate configurations effectively in your design process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/conferences.autodesk.com\/flow\/autodesk\/au2023\/sessioncatalog\/page\/inperson\/session\/1686766261985001ZLX3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sign up here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"handson-lab-become-a-fusion-360-volumetric-lattice-expert-in-90-minutes\">Hands-on LAB: Become a Fusion 360 Volumetric Lattice Expert in 90 Minutes<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>During this hands-on session, you&#8217;ll dive deep into the world of volumetric lattice in Fusion 360 and how it enables you to design the product of your dreams. You&#8217;ll start by learning the basics of how the technology works and how to lattice a sample part. Then, you&#8217;ll put your new skills into practice and lattice an actual part. After covering foundational skills, you&#8217;ll use intermediate methods to create more complex lattices with ease. Finally, you&#8217;ll explore advanced and even expert techniques that push the limits of what is possible. If you design or engineer consumer products and want to take your designs to the next level and beyond, this session is for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/conferences.autodesk.com\/flow\/autodesk\/au2023\/sessioncatalog\/page\/inperson\/session\/1686766255414001ZFnR\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sign up here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/conferences.autodesk.com\/flow\/autodesk\/au2023\/sessioncatalog\/page\/inperson\/session\/1686766493991001Za0F\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"a-look-into-the-autodesk-fusion-360-crystal-ball-for-data-management\">A Look into the Autodesk Fusion 360 Crystal Ball for Data Management<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Join us as we explore improvements that we\u2019ve made in research and development in the area of data management for Autodesk Fusion 360, from Fusion 360 software\u2019s canvas to Fusion Team to the Manage Extension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/conferences.autodesk.com\/flow\/autodesk\/au2023\/sessioncatalog\/page\/inperson\/session\/1686766262412001ZMcU\">Sign up here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"a-new-design-ride-designing-an-opensource-adaptive-mountain-bike\">A New Design Ride: Designing an Open-Source Adaptive Mountain Bike<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Noel Joyce is a wheelchair user and industrial designer currently teaching design and innovation at NYU.
