According to the NWSC Crane website, the students had to engineer a solution &#8220;that isolates the camera and minimizes vibrations, while allowing it to be continuously monitored during firing.&#8221;  The IPFW team was pitted against teams from the University of Louisville, the University of Southern Indiana, and a combined team from Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) and Butler University.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was told our design and analysis really blew the competition away,&#8221; said Professor of Engineering Don Mueller, chair of the Department of Engineering. &#8220;This is remarkable because one team did the work as a senior design project. Our team did this completely voluntary in addition to their semester course work.&#8221;  The NWSC website quoted Jim Ernest, Crane Weapon System lead engineer and a judge at the competition, as saying he was very intrigued by all the solutions presented and pleased with the overall results at the competition. &#8220;Overall, IPFW presented the best in each category. They did a very thorough engineering analysis, dampened the key vibration issues in the camera and performed well during the live-fire testing,&#8221; said Ernest.<\/p>\n<p>The team received a $1,000 cash prize from contest sponsors American Society of Naval Engineers (ASNE) and Access Technology Across Indiana (ATAIN.)
