It’s that time of year when we ask NASA Tech Briefs readers to vote for the annual Readers’ Choice Product of the Year Awards.

Each month, our editors choose a Product of the Month that has exceptional technical merit and practical value for our design engineering readers.

This month, you’re asked to cast your vote for the one product among those 12 Products of the Month that you feel was the most significant new product introduced to the engineering community in 2011. The product receiving the most votes will be named NASA Tech Briefs’ Readers’ Choice Product of the Year.

Winners will be announced in NASA Tech Briefs and on our Web site at www.techbriefs.com.

Find out more about the 12 nominated products and cast your vote by visiting: www.techbriefs.com/poy

Only one vote per person will be counted. All votes must be submitted by January 20, 2012.
