Autodesk would like to honor those young inventors and engineers that make the FIRST Robotics Competition possible at Autodesk. Autodesk Inventor allows you to quickly and easily design and modify your robot using the same iterative techniques employed by professional engineers.The Autodesk Inventor Award recognizes outstanding student achievement in mechanical design of the team robot using Autodesk Inventor® software. The software gives teams the power to test designs and check for interferences in a virtual environment so issues can be resolved without creating a physical prototype. The judges look for quality of robot design, technical expertise, and presentation of the final design. Visit this page for your rules and regs.
