The ASME SMRDC is an excellent opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students to showcase their ability to design and build a mechanism or a robot.
This competition consists of two rounds: in round one, student(s) submit a report on their design, and in the final round, several teams are invited to the conference to present their design. Teams qualified for the final round will be provided with a travel stipend and a conference registration at IDETC. Winners of the competition will be recognized during the Mechanisms & Robotics conference.
The competition is open to US, as well as international universities. Please contact the organizers below if you have any questions.
