Deadline: 2015-03-31 Award: $5,000
Technology entrepreneurs can now compete for a $10,000 prize fund in a contest to create a smart domestic or industrial device based on an ARM Cortex-M processor.
The goal is to create a device fulfilling any function in areas such as home automation, measurement, the Internet of Things or system control. Contest participants will receive professional software development tools, a debug unit, hardware containing an ARM Cortex-M4 processor-based microcontroller and peripheral components. The competitors can choose platforms provided by Freescale, Infineon, NXP or STMicroelectronics.
Final prototype designs for the ARM Microcontroller Design Contest must be submitted by June 30, 2015. The winners will be announced in October 2015, with five prizes awarded from $500 to $5000.
