Entries covering all aspects of mechanical design are welcome, from machinery design to consumer products, and from small parts to large assemblies.

The winning criteria are based on the aesthetic appeal of the design, the technical usage of the software and the description given to explain the company's use of Autodesk Inventor".
Last year more than 40 designs were entered in the competition.
The winning design was for a race engine for a Volkswagen Beetle, submitted by a designer working for Holzapfel Tuning in Germany.
