Abstract

This study presents an interdisciplinary experience that links industrial design and mathematics through the 3D printing of pieces developed by Segerman, H. (2016) in his project Visualizing Mathematics with 3D Printing. The main objective was to facilitate the understanding of abstract mathematical concepts, such as stereographic and parallel projection, through a visual setup in which the pieces, under low-light conditions, projected shadows that revealed these principles. The activity was carried out at CIP Dosquebradas and involved 47 participants, including students, professors, administrative staff, and the public. The evaluation results show a high level of satisfaction and highlight the value of integrating visual and technological resources in the teaching of mathematics, enhancing the recognition of these concepts through different dynamics and positioning Industrial Design as a key didactic strategy in terms of interaction.
