Stratasyshas announced the kickoff of its 2013 Extreme Redesign 3D Printing Challenge in partnership with online inventor community,爱迪生国家, which operates the hit TV show,日常犹太人.
In its ninth year, the contest invites students worldwide to submit inventive new product designs, redesigns of existing products, or original or redesigned works of art or architecture, for a chance to win scholarship money.
中学的学生，高中和大学等级能够参与设计挑战。
“比赛为学生提供了一个引人入胜的挑战，将他们的创造力和批判性思维技能赋予考验，同时给予他们奖学金的机会，”杰尔罗立斯格，Stratasys教育渠道经理。“每年，我们对他们提交的设计带来的奉献精神水平留下了印象。”
Besides the chance to win scholarship money, this year’s contest offers a new incentive for those in the college engineering category. Finalists will have their designs reviewed by Edison Nation, which is a matchmaker between inventors and manufacturers looking for new products to commercialize. If a design fits an existing need and meets requirements, the finalist will be considered for a licensing agreement.
As in prior years, Stratasys will award nine student winners either $2,500 or $1,000 scholarships in the categories of Middle School and High School Engineering, College Engineering, and Art & Architecture. Designs are awarded based on creativity, usefulness, part integrity and aesthetics. Instructors of the three first-place student winners will receive anApple iPad for use in the classroom. Since the contest’s inception, more than $100,000 in scholarships has been awarded to students.
每一个提交必须：
- Be a sound mechanical design.
- Be realistic and achievable.
- Include a clear written description of the design.
This year’s contest will also feature the award category, “Engineering a Difference,” in which students may compete for a bonus prize. Students whose designs are aimed at solving a great societal challenge will have a chance to win a $250 gift card.
