Tell Us How You Build It

A key aspect of this challenge is sharing knowledge with the community and therefore, we want participants to document and discuss their experience when building their IoT solution. So we expect you to blog about things like selection process for your hardware, architecture decisions, etc. Of course, publishing code and videos is also a great way to engage!

• Applications for the developer challenge opened on September 28, 2017 and the submission deadline is November 20, 2017.
• Hardware kits – On November 27, 2017, the teams behind the 10 best proposals will be offered $150 to buy hardware online, and access to special sponsors offerings.
• Submissions of the final solution must be completed by March 15, 2018 (11.59pm PDT). Prizes will be awarded for the top 3 solutions.

The solutions will be judged on the following criteria:

• Applicability of a solution to a specific industry, like Smart Cities, Industrie 4.0, Remote Health, etc.
• Completeness of solution
• Use of open standards and open source technology
• Amount of community discussion from the participants when they built their solution
