FIRST Book - Time to Get Published!

[Vince]

Now that the regionals are over, there should be time for teams to prepare their entries for publication consideration in the FIRST Book: Robots - Behind the Design.

The regional (and championship) winners of the:
• Delphi Driving Tomorrow’s Technology Award
• General Motors Industrial Design Award
• Motorola Quality Award
• RadioShack Innovation in Control Award
• Xerox Creativity Award
might want to look at some of Rockport Publishers other material to guide their submissions.

Images from the book Design Secrets illustrate the format, style and focus of Rockport Publications.

Teams that use a variety of images and styles to complement text that fully describes the design process (from concept to prototype to final design) should be most competitive for publication. Since the book will be based on material that teams submit, it is essential that teams provide the author with detailed information and images, including hand sketches, CAD drawings, and photographs.

Feel free to post ideas on material that could be submitted for consideration so that collectively a great batch of material is available to Rockport Publishers.
