Avnet challenges makers to bring AI ‘to the real world’
Contestants will need to reimagine something from their everyday lives that could benefit from intelligent IoT, and use SmartEdge Agile and the Brainium portal to create it. These technologies can help anyone effectively develop and deploy intelligent open source IoT projects at the edge through an easy-to-use, zero-code interface.
To help participants get started, Hackster.io will give away SmartEdge Agile IoT devices to the 100 best project proposals submitted to the contest page’s “Apply for hardware” tab by 19th April. Developers who miss the deadline can purchase SmartEdge Agile exclusively through Premier Farnell. All participants will then have until the 23rd of June to create a project, document the development and submit their project to the contest page. Winners will be announced on July 1st.
By utilizing SmartEdge Agile with Octonion’s Brainium portal and AI Studio powered by Microsoft Azure, participating developers will have access to a “zero-coding” machine learning tool to easily bring intelligence to their projects. Brainium Portal can be used to easily initiate a proof of concept (POC) by leveraging more than 20 predefined AI algorithms that can be re-used through to product launch. A Brainium software agent is embedded into SmartEdge Agile allowing seamless interface with AI Studio and facilitating the end-to end IoT solution which enables customers to focus on their use cases.
SmartEdge Agile with the Brainium portal includes everything makers need to develop and deploy intelligent IoT projects: A ready to use IoT device with BLE 5.0 and nine sensor, a full software stack at firmware, gateway and cloud levels, real time data visualization with Brainium widgets, a ready to use cloud API for customization and zero-coding AI model available in just a few clicks.
Hackster.io will award more than $6,000 in prizes in three categories, tripling participants’ chances to win: Best Use of AI at the Edge, Best Use Case For Real Life Practical Application, and Best Use Case For Industrial IoT.
The Hackster.io team will also select one project that best contributes to any of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to receive a $250 gift card, 12-month subscription to Patchr Premium, and be featured in a video interview with Hackster’s vibrant in-house personality and hardware nerd, Alex Glow.
