Engineering Submission Requirements
When submitting to the Engineering Design Competition keep in mind that your submission will be evaluated on multiple dimensions, your engineering design is judged together with its technical properties, mechanics, features and aesthetics. Applicants should send high-resolution images of the engineering work, showing the design from different angles, together with a textual presentation of the work. The main image is especially important, this could be an isolated isolated image on white background or a highly professional photograph with a great composition. In addition to images, technical drawings, schematics, case studies and underlying research could further be uploaded as support documents.
Item | Dimensions | Format | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Main Image Required |
JPEG | The Key Visual should encapsulate the engineering design's ingenuity and functionality. A high-resolution image or rendering must convey the design's complexity, precision, and innovation. A neutral background is preferable to ensure the engineering solution stands out, capturing the intricate details and the overall structure. Lighting should be strategically employed to accentuate the design's features and engineering excellence. | |
Optional Image 1 Required |
72 DPI |
JPEG | Showcase Image 1 should display the engineering design in various stages of operation or demonstrate its modularity. This image provides insight into the design's versatility and adaptability to different conditions or uses. It is essential to illustrate the range of capabilities or configurations, allowing viewers to grasp the full potential of the engineering solution. |
Optional Image 2 Recommended |
72 DPI |
JPEG | Showcase Image 2 must focus on the engineering design's unique technical features or components. A detailed view that highlights the craftsmanship, material choice, and innovative engineering solutions is crucial. This image invites scrutiny of the design's technical excellence and the precision with which it has been executed. |
Optional Image 3 Recommended |
72 DPI |
JPEG | Showcase Image 3 ought to place the engineering design within its intended industrial, commercial, or real-world context. By situating the design in an environment where it operates or interacts with other systems, the image should underscore its relevance and effectiveness. The setting must be chosen to complement the design, ensuring the focus remains on the engineering solution. |
Optional Image 4 Recommended |
72 DPI |
JPEG | Showcase Image 4 should capture the engineering design in action, illustrating its functionality and performance. An image that shows the design being utilized or tested, highlighting how it solves a particular problem or improves efficiency, is vital. The interaction between the design and its users or the environment should be evident, conveying its practical benefits. |
Documentation PDF Document Required |
A4 Page Size |
Documentation shall include comprehensive technical specifications, diagrams, and any pertinent data that articulate the engineering design's functionality and innovation. It should provide a deep dive into the design's development process, the challenges addressed, and the technical advancements achieved. This documentation is critical for conveying the depth of research and the level of innovation inherent in the design. | |
Video Video / Audio File Highly Optional |
AVI | The video must be a visual narrative that showcases the engineering design in motion, demonstrating its functionality and the problem it addresses. It should offer viewers a clear understanding of how the design operates, its benefits, and its impact on the industry or end-users. The video narrative should be informative, engaging, and serve to complement the static images by providing a dynamic perspective of the design in use. |
