As part of a senior level studio project in the bachelor degree program in Industrial Design at the ITT Technical Institute in Ft. Wayne, Tim Craig and Rebecca Mueller, both residents of Ft. Wayne, collaborated on a design submission for the 3rd Annual Marine Design Resource Alliance (MDRA) designer scholarship program competition. Their entry, named the "VUDU," represented what they envision to be "a groundbreaking idea that allows the enthusiast to experience a new thrill in water sports." The top prize for winning the MDRA designer scholarship competition is $5,000. For their efforts, [Craig] and Mueller will split $3,000. The remaining $2,000 goes into funding the Ft.
