We Have A Winner!

Good morning -
First and foremostimage, a big thank you to all of the Energy Harvesting Challenge participants: we have been impressed with the way their ingenuity and efforts have pushed the frontiers of this technology.
As ever, it's been difficult to select a winner.
Monte Chan has been a dynamic presence throughout this event, and his batteryless wireless remote control points the way to the future. We're glad he continues to experiment with the technology although the competition has formally ended.
However, our choices for the grand prize are Wojciech Gelmuda's Carbon Monoxide Detector and Victor Sluiter's Egg Timer. These projects fulfil the stated goal of providing a practical prototype of a device that could be powered by Energy Harvesting.  Shortly, both Wojciech and Victor will be receiving bundles from Würth Elektronik, Energy Micro and Linear Technology.  The bundle includes boards, gift certificates and other cool gear.
Again, our sincere congratulations to both Wojciech and Victor.

    Great! Thanks a lot element 14, and of course congratulations to Wojciech too! Monte: thanks for your contributions; as in the Wireless charging challenge you take your own approach at the subject, very…

    I received the prize last week, and it was great... I'm very happy, like a tech-kid in a tech-candystore image

    Thanks everyone for contributing!

    Yes it's larger 7.4" (161.6mm x 97mm). No grey scale - it is just an illusion from dithering.

    Monte,

    That sign made me smile ear-to-ear! Thanks a lot and well done, it looks really cool!

    It's a different sign than the last you've shown isn't it? It's got gray values and it's larger.....
