The Circuit Prototyping Techniques competition is now closed and we are looking for volunteers to choose a Grand Prize winner and award the First Place finishers. If you didn't get a chance to participate and this is a theme of interest to you then we could use your help in picking a winner!
Circuit Prototyping Techniques
- You can work on any project that you can use to demonstrate your circuit prototyping techniques, it can be real or be simulated.
You will be judged on the basis of the following criteria:
- Follow the Steps - Did they provide the steps it took to complete the project (text, video, or images) and/or schematics.
- Submit Video Proof - Did they post a video proof of their project?
- Stick to the Theme - How well did the project stick to the theme of the competition?
- Demonstrate Originality - Did they come up with a clever name for their project? Or did they introduce something new or that is not commercially available?
Volunteer to Judge
Can't submit a project? We need your support in keeping this program running. By volunteering to judge you help ensure that the winners of Spy Nerd reflect the diversity of thought and opinion that makes this the best online community for engineers in the galaxy!
Those of you that have volunteered to judge in the past, you know the drill. Comment below to let me know or message me directly at tariq.ahmad.
You're under no obligation to vote for the best project but we do ask that you look for complete projects and let us know your thoughts on the winners you pick.
