If you haven't noticed, we launched a new challenge with Cydesign to get the GrabCAD Community to come up with models of a Group B Rally car. Already we've been seeing a number of things that makes us particularly happy - active discussion between a client and the community.
While we're glad that CyDesign has returned for a second round of challenges, we're particularly pleased to announce yet another challenge. Ladies and GentleCADrs, the CyDesign Car Component Challenge.
Seems simple, does it not? Well not quite. Actually, this one is a bit complex and following the rules and submitting the correct models is absolutely essential. CyDesign needs these models for simulations, yet cannot use models that trip over existing trademarks and IP. In other words, don't simply download an Audi brake system and make alterations. It needs to be made from the bottom-up. Not only that, make sure that any submitted STEP/OBJ files are approximately 50 kB is size.
Disqualification is not that difficult to avoid. GrabCAD and CyDesigns hate to see any Engineer or Designer's hard work go to waste. If you have any questions, post them on the comments page or message David Hinz. Better safe than sorry - look at the prizes! $500 for each set of car components!
Challenge runs until ______. More details can be found right here.
