Using Altair Inspire to Optimize Robotic Design
Discover how Altair Inspire can transform your robotic designs and give you an edge in the 2024/25 Altair Global Student Contest!
Learn how to set up models, define materials, and optimize your robot's structure for lightweight strength using Inspire’s powerful topological optimization tools. You'll also get insights into simulating robotic motion with Inspire Motion, and how to leverage these simulations for accurate structural analysis.
While participation is not mandatory to enter the 2024/25 Student Contest, your attendance will provide all the skills necessary to create your own designs for submission into the contest.
