All of the sponsored Challengers for the "IoT on Wheels" Design Challenge will receive for FREE the following kit, detailed in the table below, which is based on the STMicroelectronics STM32 Open Development Environment.
Our judges will choose 10 applicants to become sponsored challengers, these challengers will receive the kit free of charge. If your application is not chosen to become a sponsored challenger, you can buy the kit from the link below and still be in the running to win!
The STM32 Open Development Environment is an open, flexible, and affordable way to develop innovative devices and applications based on the STM32 32-bit microcontroller family combined with other state-of-the-art ST components connected via expansion boards.
To learn more, watch the video below.
Once the sponsored Challengers receive their kit, they will then embark on their journey of designing an exciting and original project that will make their vehicle of choice – whether it has 1, 2, 3, or 4 wheels – safer, smarter, more efficient, or improves traffic management through the use of Internet connectivity and embedded devices. (NOTE: even if you aren't a sponsored Challenger, you can still participate in the Design Challenge as long as you follow with the terms and conditions and integrate the STMicroelectronics Nucleo MCU dev board into your design.)
If you complete your project by the deadline and write at least 10 blog posts (tagging your blogs 'iot on wheels'), you’ll also be in the running for some awesome prizes, including a Segway MiniPRO.
The deadline for project submissions is 13th November

STM32 Nucleo Board The STM32 Nucleo board provides an affordable and flexible way for users to try out new ideas and build prototypes with any STM32 microcontroller line. With Arduino |  |
Sensor Expansion Board The X-NUCLEO-IKS01A2X-NUCLEO-IKS01A2 is a motion MEMS and environmental sensor expansion board for the STM32 Nucleo It is equipped with Arduino UNO R3 connector layout and is designed around the |  |
Bluetooth LE Expansion Board The X-NUCLEO-IDB05A1X-NUCLEO-IDB05A1 is a Bluetooth Low Energy evaluation board based on the SPBTLE-RF BlueNRG-MS RF module The SPBTLE-RF module is FCC(FCC ID S9NSPBTLERF and IC certified(IC 8976C-SPBTLERF It is compatible with the ST Morpho and Arduino UNO R3 connector layout The X-NUCLEO-IDB05A1X-NUCLEO-IDB05A1 interfaces with the STM32 microcontroller via the SPI pin and the user can change the default SPI clock the SPI chip select and SPI IRQ by changing one resistor on the evaluation board |  |
WiFi Expansion Board The X-NUCLEO-IDW04A1 Wi-Fi evaluation board is based on the SPWF04SA module. The SPWF04SA module has an embedded STM32 MCU, a low-power Wi-Fi b/g/n SoC with integrated power amplifier and power management, and an SMD antenna. The SPWF04SA module relies on 2 MB MCU internal Flash. 1 MB of the internal Flash is for storing the user file system and performing secure firmware update over the air (FOTA). A hardware interface allows the use of external memory to extend file system storage capability with no size limit. The firmware includes a complete IP stack, dynamic web pages with SSI to interact with the module and a REST API (get & post) for conveniently transferring files to and from servers in the cloud. The module can simultaneously behave as a socket server and socket client. The firmware supports secure sockets with TLS encryption, ensuring secure end-to-end communications with the cloud. The X-NUCLEO-IDW04A1 interfaces with the MCU on the STM32 Nucleo board via the UART serial port and SPI interface. |  |
Interested in Challenging the Challengers? You can do it as a non-sponsored Challenger! Here's How:
All you need to do is get the low-cost NUCLEO-L476RGNUCLEO-L476RG and integrate it into your project, as well as post 10 blogs about your design journey in the IoT on Wheels space (tagging your blogs 'iot on wheels') and you'll be eligible to win the awesome prizes.

Hello,
I don't think you will have a problem as an experienced developer. However, it is not a piece of cake as I would call Arduino (and clones).
There are basically 2 approaches:
1) The board comes…
Never worked with this type of board before. As an experienced Arduino and Pi user, would you say this is relatively straightforward to get started with?
I guess it should be.
BTW, awesome challenge from element14 after a long time. Looking forward to some really nice project coming out of it.
