NIDays2010 Paper Contest!
I just had an email land in my inbox from National Instruments advertising a "Paper Contest" for an event called NIDays2010:
It looks like they are offering prizes for papers written about projects using NI software (things like LabView) in interesting ways. If there are any LabView gurus out there (or gurus in training), perhaps an mbed + LabView combo could make a really interesting entry?! And the prizes include a LEGO mindstorms!
Here is the main blurb for the competition:
"Submit your most innovative solution for measurement and automation to the NIDays 2010 Paper Contest – the technical paper contest that showcases the most innovative uses of virtual instrumentation and Graphical System Design in teaching or research as well as from engineers in industry."
It'd be great to see some projects using mbed and LabView together, and there must be scope for doing some really new and innovative things. For the full details, see:
If anyone does decide to enter, please keep us up to date on how you get on.
p.s. if you are a student with a great idea for entering this competition, but you don't have your own mbed yet, we'll consider sponsoring a few of the most interesting and worthy projects; email us at sponsorship@mbed.org with your proposal and we'll pick a few of the best to sponsor with an mbed to help get your idea off the ground.
