Team 2 Poster 20-21.png
Good things to note on this poster are how they have used the model of their turbine as the key explanation of their process. It shows design iterations on the left side – note it would have been better to have some text explaining the differences and improvements from one version to the next. The large turbine diagram of their final design includes great explanatory text and arrows to show exactly why their design meets the criteria for success. This helps the reader easily understand what the team did and why their project was successful.
Team 40 Poster 20-21.png
This poster does a nice job of conveying the work on a multi-year project that culminated with what the team had done that year. Notice they did not use text boxes, but the way they organized the poster and used heading and labels it still makes it easy to read and understand. The center picture of the Octocopter as well as the smaller component images are good, high-resolution photos.
Team 44 Poster 21-22.png
This poster does a good job of using graphics and images to help the reader simply understand the team's solution and how it works. The detail images in the circles help the reader get a more detailed look at the key components. Again, everything is nicely labeled with arrows indicating each part.

Team 36 Poster 20-21.png
This poster also uses an exploded view of their final assembly with clear labels and explanations.
Team 34 Poster 19-20.png
The key item to note in this poster is how they used an exploded view of their assembly to show their work. If they were to have shown only a picture of the assembled system if would have been very hard to understand. Each piece is labeled clearly and they did not crowd the poster with too much text. They also used color nicely to distinguish the various parts.
Team 32 Poster 19-20.png
Again the focus of this poster is a  nicely labeled diagram of their design with the components clearly labeled. Notice how they have coordinated the colors and the label text with the color of the text box that explains each component and system in more detail.
Team 8 Poster 21-22.png
This is another good example of using the rendering of the prototype as the central element of the poster. They have explained the components, but it would have been even better to have labeled them by name. Smaller graphics help the reader understand how the hardware interacts with the App and how it is intended to be used by the technicians and doctors. Their Key Success Measures table makes it easy to see that the team’s design is very successful and exceeds their targets.
Team 6 Poster 20-21.png
This team used a diagram of their electrospinning set-up as the focal point of their poster. The labelled each component well and have arrows indicating each piece. They also used color well (the yellow text boxes) to help tie their Requirements/Key Success Measures to their Design Performance. Those things help non-expert readers easily understand what the team has done on their project.
Team 5 Poster 21-22.png
Things to note on this poster are that they used their graphics of the whole press and the individual clamps (in the smaller circles) to show not only what they are but where they go and how they interface with each other. They’ve called out the different parts of the press that are referred to in their text. They have used two different designs of text boxes to distinguish the different types of info. That helps the reader sort the information and more quickly understand what they are seeing.
Team 4 Poster 13-14.png
Good things going on with the poster are the exploded diagram of the new fixture with text and arrows to explain it. This is a key element on their poster. The other diagrams to note are the visual and text explanation of the old assembly process vs. the new process, though these graphics are too small and challenging to read. This poster could have been improved by making these process diagrams larger, better explanations of what the three images are of the testing and find a way to quantify the improvements in operator fatigue.
