MySensors Contest 2015

written by hek

Last years project contest turned out to be a blast! Hopefully we'll see even more fun and creative projects this year.

The contest will run for the next month and a half. This year there will be two winners!

  1. Best MySensors based project where the evaluation criteria will be creativity, innovation, craftsmanship and how well the project has been documented.
  2. Best MySensors project contribution in the form of a code commit, new controller plugin or other contribution not covered by the above prize.

We hope that you will participate! No project is too small. By sharing projects and ideas, we'll hopefully learn new things from each other.

Prizes

As we're financed through donations by the community the prizes are somewhat moderate. But the winner will still get:

  • The Honor accompanied with a Winner Badge next to the username when posting on the forum.
  • A small kit of Arduinos, radio and sensors worth approximately $50.

On the jury this year is also the last years winner BulldogLowell.
