(http://www.asmeconferences.org/IDETC2010)

August 15-18, 2010, Fairmont the Queen Elizabeth Hotel, Montreal, Quebec, Canada


IMPORTANT DATES
Letter of intent (single page) due by: APRIL 2, 2010

Notification to finalists due by: JUNE 15, 2010
Final round of the competition: AUGUST 15-18, 2010


DESCRIPTION
The ASME Student Mechanism and Robot Design Competition is an excellent opportunity for both undergraduate and graduate students to showcase their abilities in designing mechanisms and robots.

Many past entries have been designed with SolidWorks software!

This competition consists of two rounds: in round one, student(s) send a report on their design, and in round two, a few selected teams from round one are invited to the conference to present their design. Winners of the competition will be recognized during the Mechanisms and Robotics luncheon at the conference venue, and presented with awards, which in the past, have included both cash and software prizes.

The National Science Foundation has provided funding to support the travel costs of up to two participants from each design team that makes it to the final round. The funds will cover the ASME IDETC registration, hotel stay, transportation (airfare), and meals (on a per diem basis). Students from all US-based institutions are eligible for this.


The details on how to participate can be found at the contest website:

If you are a student, apply! If you are an engineer or professor, we would appreciate if you can distribute this email along with the attached flyer to your colleagues working in the mechanisms and robotics area, and post it on department bulletin boards for further dissemination.
