Hello everyone!
Great News Community! We have decided to extend the deadline for submission by two weeks. The new deadline is now Novemer 8th! So get designing and join the game!
We are pleased to announce the Global Community Games 2020! We will host two rounds of contests for the Design and Manufacturing industry in five language communities (English, French, German, Japanese, and Russian)! The games are happening in Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC), and AutoCAD (ACAD) industry/product in the eight language communities also!
The first round is the Preliminary Competition - Design and Manufacturing. All the contestants must start from here to become the winner in your community. The top two from each language community will proceed with the Global Competition Final- Design and Manufacturing. They will compete with the 9 winners from the other language community to win the Championship.

*Note: It’s up to finalists to re-work on the original design for the Global Competitions Final to be their best and re-submit before the final deadline.
Rules:
How to enter your design:
It’s simple and easy. Just reply to this topic with your design.
Judging Criteria:
Autodesk Community Managers and the Autodesk Technical Staff will be the judge.
Industry |
Judging Criteria |
Design & Manufacturing (D&M) |
Innovation, originality, and modeling technique |
For those who want to join without submitting the design:
Don’t worry, you can vote for the design you like using the “Like” button. You need to Sign in to participate. The votes won’t be one of the judging criteria, but we want to hear from you.
Finally, here's the Challenge!
Design & create a working assembly of a simple mechanism. Make it as simple or complex as you would like.
We are looking forward to seeing your design! Enjoy!
Check out the other industries and vote (or even participate if you can)!

The submissions are meant to be public, in order to encourage the community to vote for their favorites using the "Like" button. The video is required in order to show the judges that the mechanism works as designed. The motion can be achieved through driven dimensions or any other tool built into the software used (Fusion or Inventor).
Thank you.

Okay Sir, I am Extremely Sorry, I did not know that Submissions happen this way by Liking our Favourite Entry... I thought that a new post with all the Submissions will be made for Voting...
But sir, I would really love to add the Motion Video to the Submission.... But, I really don't know how to give it Motion... Or else, I would have.....
And, as far as Password is concerned in my file, I will share a new one without password.....
But please sir, please tell an alternative to the Motion Video....
Your mechanism can be animated by driving constraints that define the movement of the components. It does not need to be a fancy or professional video, just need to see the motion.

Let‘s have a try !
We made an animatronic tail for cosplay use called Furtail. Which controls two servos to pull the strings so that the continnum body (the tail consists of many ball joint snap-fit parts) could move as a real tail while still behave flexible.
Every parts are design in Fusion 360, and produced by 3D printing.
The real one has been finished, works as predicted.
Here is the screencast in fusion 360 of using Motion Analysis to record a short video about driving the tail to move.
That looks cool! Thank you for the entry and good luck!

Great News for Participants who could not submit their designs or were Late. ...
Deadline Extended till 8th November 2020 .....
So, sir @CGBenner , now that deadline is Extended, can we submit more than One Design...??
One entry per person for D&M, but you could try to enter the AEC or AutoCAD contests. Links are in the main post here at the top.

Log Lifter
LOG LIFTING MECHANISM:
The main function of this mechanism is to load the wooden logs into the transporter( truck). The design involves kinematic links that support each other in order to get the job done.
This is made in such a way that it can be transported to any place and can be used right away. This can be dis-assembled to save the space while transporting it.
Please watch the video(Motion link) attached below to get a clear understanding.
You can animate the model on your own. Just upload the file(Log lifting mechanism CGC2020.f3z)attached into fusion360.
Open the motion study->>right click->>edit->> play the study as I have shown it in the screencast(Voice over included)
(or)
Just hold the wheel and hover to see how it works.
Thank you so much for the opportunity.

Hi Everyone,
I am excited that Autodesk is having this competition during these times. Below is a description of the Iron Man suit that I am building. I hope you enjoy watching it 🙂
-Dylan
This is a simple mechanism mimicking of a bird flying in the air.
A contest, you say? I'm in!
This is a small "active" differential. That is to say, the timing between output shafts is driven, not passive.
Two independent inputs are: a spur gear (drive gear) driving the ring gear of a siamesed planetary gear set and a bevel gear (timing gear) driving both planet carriers. Outputs are the sun gears, having "indicator" disks (with lobes to better indicate position) shown in red.
For purposes of the demonstration, a ratio of input rotation speeds is used to vary the timing. Drive speed is kept constant for this demonstration (graphics card capabilities notwithstanding) but could be varied independently of the timing gear.
The demonstration begins with a ratio of zero - no timing input given. The outputs run in lock step. Thereafter, the ratio is changed to both positive and negative values. The resulting change in output timing - one shaft's position in relation to the other - can be seen to alter, and even reverse, the rotation of either output shaft. One gains as much as the other loses, thus the net rotation remains unchanged so long as the drive input speed remains constant.
Any questions?
Any answers?
Anyone care for a mint?

Don't forget to submit a Screencast video of the mechanism in motion, for the judges. Thank you for your entry!
