Because every detail matters, the design team at
Hoyt sought to improve their grips to deliver the best
performance possible.
Its vibration damping properties also added
stability by absorbing the energy generated from the
release of the bowstring.

CLEVELAND – September 16, 2019 – PolyOne today announced that its IQ Design team received a 2019 IDEA Gold award in the Social Impact Design category from the Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA).
This year’s competition, judged by a jury of over two dozen global design experts, included over 1600 entries from 24 countries, with only 19 designated Gold winners from among the 101 awards presented.
Unlike vision care in the developed world, the USee enables those with blurred vision to dial in their best optical acuity while viewing an eye chart, thus determining their correct prescription.

These braces,
traditionally made with steel, were initially fabricated
from aluminum for a solid weight savings of 3 kg per
vehicle over steel versions.
Each cradle brace is a two-foot long, rectangular bar
with a “U” shape machined into our engineering team
developed and analyzed three options: a unidirectional,
hybrid carbon and glass fiber profile; a unidirectional
carbon fiber profile; and finally, a profile made with both
a unidirectional carbon fiber and a transverse engineered
fabric, which had the advantage of minimizing any
potential cracks from propagating.
Engineers chose this third option because it met all of the
technical requirements and had the best combination
of properties.
