Assistive technology is defined on Wikipedia as “assistive, adaptive, and rehabilitative devices for people with disabilities or the elderly population.”
For this contest, we want you to use your tech skills for good and improve someone’s quality of life! Think about items you use every day that may be difficult for someone else. Observe your surroundings and try to find clever solutions to everyday problems.
We’re also offering a Judge’s Prize for Best Use of Tinkercad, so make sure to use Tinkercad in your designs!
Create a new Instructable that fits the guidelines outlined in the contest description above. To be eligible, Instructables must be published between Nov 4, 2019 and Jan 6, 2020 (11:59pm PT).
Upon publishing your Instructable you'll see checkboxes for open contests. Select Assistive Tech Contest. If you have entries currently eligible for entry, it will also show up by clicking "Enter this Contest" on the right side of this page.
Entries are accepted by Instructables staff within one business day Monday - Friday. What matters is the submission time, not acceptance time.
A panel of judges made up of Instructables staff and respected members of the community rate the finalists. The averages of the ratings determine the winners.
When the winners are decided they will be notified and announced here on the contest page.
