CUNY City Tech’s Industrial Design Technology Programat Department of Mechanical Engineering Technology Presents

Design Competition for Preventing the Coronavirus Disease and Spending Time Usefully during the Stay-at-home Era

Call for innovative ideas: any innovation or design for a product that can help preventing coronavirus disease (mask, robot, drone, shield, bottle of hand sanitizer, devise, sensor etc) or spending time usefully/productively at home during staying home (gym exercise tools etc). Start brainstorming, hand drawing, 3D modeling, then we will have presentations.

1.Sketch (hand drawing) your idea on a paper,

2.Take a picture, and

3.Send the image file to Professor Masato R. Nakamura ( mnakamura@citytech.cuny.edu ) by 5pm, Friday, 4/24/2020

* You will have a chance to present your idea among professionals and industrial design students as well as have feedback from them.

This design competition is held in conjunction with a IND 2410 Industrial Design II coursework project. It is open to CUNY’s City Tech and Brooklyn communities. An excellent design will be recommended to present in a conference/startup event in the future.
