Announcing the Intel® Edison Developer Challenge

For all developers, start-ups and ISVs who have an idea for a product that makes the Internet of Things a reality, look no further.

Intel® has launched a challenge in UK with community partner HW Academy. After 6 months of training developers within the HW Academy community on how to build projects with the Intel® Edison Module, Intel® and HW Academy have teamed up to bring you the Intel® Edison Developer Challenge. By combining great ideas with leading technology, we are hoping to build some prototype projects using the Intel® Edison Module and the Intel® IoT Developer Kit.

Intel® Edison Developer Challenge

Since December 2015, HW Academy have run a series of Intel® Edison beginner workshops in London, UK. The workshops have sold out—usually the same day they launch—and in many cases a waitlist has been in operation. Those developers that attended were presented with an Intel® Edison board, the Intel® IoT Developer Kit and some Intel® technical support in order to learn how to get the board connected to their PC and pulling data from sensors plugged in to the board. In every workshop, there were some people who had buzzers going off, LEDs flashing, temperature being recorded and data being written to an LCD screen. In June, we invited those trained developers to an intermediate workshop where they were exposed to the techniques of connecting the Edison board to the cloud and reporting the data generated by the sensors to a dashboard in the cloud. This experience provided the developers with a foundation of how to develop prototype products for the Internet of Things.

IoT Prototyping

If you are in UK and have a great idea for a project, apply using the website above or follow this link: http://www.hardwareacademy.io/intel-edison-developer-challenge. The 10 best entries will get their own Edison board and Grove* Sensor Kit to build their project, and the best project that is uploaded to Instructables will win £1000 and have their project presented on the Intel® Developer Zone for people to see.

Good Luck!
