Any students interested in a contest?

If you are in school and have an desire  to compete with other student around the world, take a look at this web site.

I think you can enjoy.I would like to start a discussion to see the ideas you may have.

 

The Challenge is to develop innovative and interesting projects using Digilent products.

Cash prizes will be awarded and all the finalists keep the hardware they received from Digilent for implementing the projects.

So, what ideas do you have? I bet you can get experts on this site to help you to hone into a really good idea for a contest like this.

  • I've noticed that most students will not have interest in a contest unless they get class credit for participating.  You may want to target the professors to get more ideas.

    Another problem is usually timing disconnects between class dates and contest dates.  If a contest starts at the beginning of a semester, it's more likely to get attention and support.  If it runs over semesters, then it's hard to get the students to continue the project, teams break up, students graduate, etc.

    Some thoughts,
