The Technical Design Report is a written report outlining design choices and considerations taken in creating the ship. The report is expected to include an overview of the components and systems onboard the ship, in addition to an increased focus on certain innovative aspects. This is an opportunity for teams to bring attention to and share the most ingenious, challenging areas of their design. The jury will score the reports based on the following criteria:
The report communicates a complete overview of the ship's components and systems, and their interaction.
Major design choices are presented and well justified.
2-3 particularly innovative aspects are documented and presented in a fashion deemed inspiring to other students.
The report contains visual aids (images, graphs and/or figures) as appropriate to supplement descriptions.
A total of 10 points may be achieved from the Technical Design Report.
Team Presentations
In addition to the Technical Design Report, each team will be given the possibility of presenting their ASV to the Jury, in form of a 30 minutes powerpoint presentation. This is an unique opportunity to further explain your control system, by showcasing your components and equipments onboard the ASV.
