Find Out Who Won the Electronics Design Contest!
This contest proved to be one of our most challenging to judge as there was no shortage of excellent entries. We had 158 entries and our judges had the almost impossible task of cutting it down to just 3 winners and a handful of honourable mentions. Check out the entries page to see some of the great designs from our community and find models for our eSUN print contest.
Honourable Mentions
Talking iBreathe Breathalyzer by daveyclk
If you’re worried you’ve had a bit too much to drink, fear not. This breathalyzer will estimate your level of drunkenness and politely inform you of the results using voice and some neat cloud integrations. All in a stylish package that’ll fit right in at the bar.
This little robot is a great introduction to electronics and programming with Arduino. Featuring ultrasonic edge detection and no shortage of LEDs, this was easily one of our favorites.
Our Winners!
Third Place
Desktop Satellite Antenna by Hyperplane Interactive
We were blown away by this Desktop Satellite that is capable of rotating and tracking celestial objects. The satellite is programmed to a specific object and space and will follow it in real time using GPS coordinates. Congratulations, you win a crafty 3D Printing Pen from MatterHackers!
Second Place
Otto DIY by Camilo Parra Palacio
This won all of the points in the creativity and uniqueness categories and was also very well executed. Otto dances, (attempts to) sing, avoids obstacles, and is generally pretty cute. Camilo tells us there are more Ottos incoming! Congratulations, you win a Micro3D Printer and 2 spools of MatterHacker Pro Filament!
