NEW FOR 2024 - FORMULA ETHARA AI-GENERATED SHOWCASE CAR

(The image above was created using newarc.ai)

For the 2024 Formula Ethara National Finals, we are introducing a replacement for the traditional showcase cars in a move to embrace new technologies and be more sustainable. Students will be required to use Ai image generation software to design a race car which will be a part of the judged competition elements during the National Finals. 

Please refer to the Ai-Generated Showcase Car scorecard to learn more about the assessment criteria. 

EXAMPLE PROCESS

SOFTWARE USED: NEWARC.AI 

STEP 1 - THIS IMAGE WAS UPLOADED INTO THE AI SOFTWARE

STEP 2 -  THIS IS THE INITIAL AI GENERATED CAR THE SOFTWARE CREATED USING THE ABOVE SOURCE IMAGE.  SET TO LOW CREATIVITY SETTING AND BASIC WRITTEN PROMPT 

STEP 3 - SECOND ATTEMPT WITH A HIGHER CREATIVITY SETTING AND MORE SPECIFIC WRITTEN PROMPT

HOW IT WORKS

1. PICK THE AI SOFTWARE - Students pick the Ai software they would like to use. They can use one from the list below or any other ai software of their choosing. 
2. CREATE THE IMAGE - Most ai software will require either a source image or a written prompt to create the image, some require both. By adjusting the source, text prompts, and other options such as ai-creativity' level, students will be able to quickly and easily design a creative looking car to a high level of quality. 
3. DOWNLOAD THE TEMPLATE: AI GENERATED SHOWCASE CAR TEMPLATE.pptx
4. PLACE IMAGE INTO THE TEMPLATE - Once students have finalised their ai-generated car design, they must then place an image of it into the PowerPoint template ready for submission.
5. COMPLETE ALL THE TEMPLATE DETAILS - The PowerPoint template also has an area for students to put in the details of how they produced their ai-generated showcase car design. 
6. EXPORT AND UPLOAD - Export the PowerPoint slide as a .JPG and submit it to us by the date and the location published in the competition regulations.
