Designed and conceived by German Industrial
Designer Miriam Irle, the European Inventor Awards trophy, in the significant
shape of a sail, is also re-invented each year, as it is fabricated locally, in the country where the awards ceremony
takes place, using a different process.
This year, in Vienna (Austria), was no exception. The sail-shaped trophy was fabricated from
wood using sophisticated computer-generated 3D design and modeling.
The European Patent Office (EPO) video below, narrated by Miriam Irle, reviews the history of the trophy, and shows the behind-the-scenes, computer-assisted, woodworking
process used for the fabrication of the trophies awarded this year.
