Create an open hardware design
for the European Space Agency (ESA) that can be generated by a 3D printer. All
of the open hardware designs will go into a public domain library of designs,
and ESA will pick the best one to emerge from the 2013 International Space Apps
Challenge. Functional Specifications: -The model shall reproduce, in whole or partially, any aspect of an ESA
space mission. Some examples are satellites, launchers, landers, rovers, space
stations modules, dioramas, instruments and ground segment equipment. One
particular example (by no means exclusive) will be modeling the spacecraft,
service module or, payload of the Gaia mission. -The objects should be solids suitable for printing. The models shall be
an original creation of the participants. Any unauthorized inclusion of
third-party intellectual property will be the sole responsibility of the
participant. -The build size should not be larger than 20x20x10 cm
(7.87”x7.87”x3.94”).-Monochrome and color models are accepted. -An STL format version of the model is required. Additional files
providing color and texture information (e.g. X3D, VRML, bitmap textures) are
optional (and welcome). -A single compressed file (zip, rar, tgz) will be sent by each
participant. In principle, models will be sent directly to the email of the
person of contact. Should another means be set up (e.g. web or ftp server), it
will be announced to the participants. -The designs will be evaluated in terms of fidelity, detail, ease of
manufacturing and creativity. -You are not limited to existing infrastructure. You can also generate
3D models related to future missions."

We develop a range of printed items that can be put at the service of the space adventure.
