The deadline for applications is March 28.
Grand Prize Winner will receive an Apple iPad Pro 11-inch (4th gen) 128GB and an iRobot Roomba self-emptying robot vacuum cleaner.
The runner-up will receive an iPad Mini 10.9 inch 64GB and an iRobot Roomba self-emptying robot vacuum cleaner.
In order to illustrate the precision and applicability of ultrasonic distance sensing technology, participants will incorporate TDK USSM Plus-FS sensors into a useful project.
An evaluation kit from TDK, comprising two TDK USSM Plus-FS ultrasonic range sensors, a TDK evaluation board, and a set of sensor connector cables, will be given to chosen candidates.
Object detection, industrial control sensing, human-robot interaction, movement boundary control, conveyor belt monitoring, smart delivery robots, autonomous lawnmowers, and liquid level sensing are just a few of the possible uses for ultrasonic sensing technology that participants are encouraged to investigate.
Leadership Comments
Andreea Teodorescu, Global Director of Product Marketing & element14 Community, stated, “This design challenge provides our community with the opportunity to explore the power of ultrasonic sensing technology with hands-on experience in real-world applications.”
The deadline for applications is March 28. Participants have till June 16th to develop their projects after being chosen. Before the deadline, challengers must publish at least five blog entries detailing their development, including the finished item. Posts with images, videos, and code samples will receive higher ratings.
Those who finish the challenge (anyone who completes five blogs and a project with the featured product) will receive a MultiComp Pro Multimeter Set.
