Sometimes, being a box of electronics can be a hard life, especially if you are a box of electronics in the Just Encase Design Challenge!

Hammond Manufacturing and the element14 Community invite you to come up with the best remote monitoring solution, AND put it into a really hazardous environment.

Will you push your project to its limits?

The Challenge

The element14 Community is pleased to introduce the Just Encase Design Challenge, in partnership with Hammond Manufacturing. Submit your application with a summary describing the remote monitoring project of your choice, with a focus on subjecting your project to harsh environmental conditions like extreme temperatures, water exposure, debris like dust or dirt, and more. Use the provided Arduino MKR WAN 1300, keep the project safe using one of Hammond's enclosures, and show yourself putting it through its paces!

Want to jet wash your project, bury it in snow, or blast it with sand at the beach? We want to see a video or photos of the before and after!

20 challengers will be selected to receive the FREE enclosure kit to help protect their projects from the cruel, cruel world.

What can you build?

Example applications could include:

Beach-side Tide Monitoring
Industrial Plant Predictive Maintenance Device
Freezer Humidity Monitoring System
Outdoor Stadium Crowd Monitor
Quarry Conditions Monitor
