THE TASK – CREATE A SOLUTION TO A PROBLEM
The task at hand is broad, as we seek designers who possess a unique perspective in order to develop products that function more effectively.
Engineers adhere to an iterative design process. The judges, particularly James Dyson, are attracted to designs that employ ingenious yet uncomplicated engineering principles while addressing distinct issues.
In addition to demonstrating the technical feasibility of your project, we also encourage you to showcase its commercial viability. This entails including any research you have conducted on manufacturing costs and retail prices.
