2 Teams. 1 Challenge. $20,000 In Prizes & Giveaways
 

Cooler Master is proud to announce the DREAM Challenge. Design and Reimagine to Engineer Awesome Machines (DREAM) is the newest showcase event from Cooler Master. Two high school robotics teams will use the MasterCase Maker 5 to build an automated case and document their progress for your enjoyment. Oh, and for the chance to win a $5,000 donation for their school’s robotics program!

We will also have tons of giveaways through social media, online voting, and live at PAX West in Seattle! You can vote for your favorite team here:

After 1 day all I can say is WOW. Thanks to everyone voting and participating in this event. We had so many people trying to get on the site at one point the server crashed.

Remember, every vote is an entry for a chance to win great prizes from Cooler Master. We hope to do more things like this in the future so please share your opinions!

Also, if you are going to PAX, let me know. I would love to have you meet our teams and talk robots!

After week 1 of the challenge both teams are still going strong! Over 2600 votes have been cast so far with Robodox 599 holding a slight lead over Space Cookies 1868. There is still a lot of time left to vote if you haven't. We got tons of prizes to give away and the more you vote the better your chances!

This is also a good time to comment on each team's build. Based on the clues it looks like Robodox are doing a liquid cooled system with custom loops. Space Cookies seem to be coming up with an airplane concept.

Over 10,000 votes have been cast and there is only a few days left until the teams must have their builds completed for shipping. Space Cookies hold a small lead over Robodox but with the continued voting online and in person at PAX it can be anyone's game.

Prizes have been updated too. Every vote is a chance to win cases, keyboards, and other cool products.

Hi CMBrandon,

I noticed you talking to yourself here a lot so I thought I would check out what this was all about. After noticing that one of these teams is going to win money and that voting could win me computer parts for my nephew (he's always playing video games), I decided that I'd try to vote.

Unfortunately I don't have a facebook account so I can't place my vote it seems! Is this vote only supposed to be for younger people? I'm certainly not the only person I know who doesn't have facebook. I tried once but there was just so much going on and too much private information...

If you can accept my vote here, I'd like to vote for Robodox!

Best Regards,
RM

Sorry Rivet Man, you need a feacebook account to vote. If you still want to help a team get more votes I would suggest letting your friends know via email that they can take part in the voting process.

We are heading into the final week before PAX where each team's build will be on display. So far all we can say is WOW. Over 13,000 votes have been cast so far. Remember, each vote enters you into a drawing to win great prizes.

Here is what each team is working on based on info from their blogs:

Robodox 599- They 3D printed a human heart and it looks like it is going to interface somehow with the custom liquid cooling.

Space Cookies 1868- Their case can launch custom folded paper airplanes from the top using a custom launching mechanism.

We are super excited to see how these turn out and we encourage the CD community to vote, comment, and share their ideas.
