Security Products Submission Requirements
When submitting to the Security Products Design Competition keep in mind that your submission will be evaluated on multiple dimensions, your security product design is judged together with its safety, usability, ergonomics and packaging. Applicants should send high-resolution images of the security products, showing the designs from multiple angles, together with a textual presentation of the works. Main image is especially important and should either be isolated on white background or could also be a highly professional photograph showcasing the security product in a contextual composition. In addition to images, user manuals, installation instructions and maintenance guides could further be uploaded as support documents.
