[ ENDED ] Jan-Feb 2013 - Stellarisiti Project of the Month Contest

[bluehash 1,581]

Entry to the Nov-Dec 2012 POTM contest is open. This is an opportunity for you to show off what you can do with the Stellaris. You are free to use any Stellaris Microcontroller.

As most of you are still getting your boards in, this contest runs till the end of December, so you have plenty of time. You are free to make BoosterPacks too. If many are interested in your kit or BoosterPack, I can help you put it up in The 43oh Store(temporarily closed). You will earn some royalty on it and also help keep this community up and running.

To submit your entry, make an entry into this thread(or Projects) with the following:
1 - A small description of your project.
2 - A picture or video of your setup
3 - Code.
4 - Schematic(rough/hand drawn is fine as long its legible) and/or board files.

Prizes so far:
$20 Cash Prize - Donate by Abecederian, matched by Stellarisiti
10 LM3S8962 Ethernet+CAN Evaluation Kits EK-LM3S8962.




About judging the winner :
A week before the contest ends, a poll will be created with all the project entries. Only members of the forum will be allowed to vote.
The contest will roll over to the next month if there are fewer than 12 projects(12 or less).

A few simple rules to follow:
- You should have a working project
- You must be a member of the Stellarisiti forum at least a week before your submission.
- One entry from each member will be permitted.
- Your project can be anything based around the Stellaris. You may interface the Stellaris to another controller.
- You may reuse code from anywhere as long as you give credit to the original author.
- You must submit code and schematics of your project with a proper description.
- You can submit your Stellaris project, if it was created before the annoucement of the contest.
- You must have at least 5 posts in the forums, for your entry to be considered when the voting begins.

By the way, thanks for sponsoring the 74xx comp on Dangerous Prototypes. I reckon those LM3S kits will make at least one punter happy !

Hi Bluehash,

 

Quick question. Is the 5 post requirement met if the posts are on the 43oh forum or do they have to be on this forum?

 

Thanks,

[bluehash 1,581]

It will have to be here.

Surely you can find a few posts that you can make a constructive comment on? In fact asking that question got you one post nearer your 5.

Fred,

 

You are correct. In fact this reply brings me yet closer to 5 post nirvana.

 

Was curious to see if the communities were considered individual rooms in one home or totally separate.

 

Cheers!

Bluehash has received my contribution to the prize here.

 

I hope everyone puts forward their best efforts.

 

 

 

 

I haven't said it until now, but I may double up my donation if I'm particularly impressed with the project. Just don't tell my wife.

 

That may mean you can win 2 paperclips instead of 1!!!!

 

Or not. BH will make the determination about distributing my donation, and we'll go from there.

Just a bump to remind participants.

I've had no time to work on my project so won't make this contest. And I've already won one of these kits so wouldn't want to be greedy.

I don't think I'll even get a Stellaris LP kit in time.  The Ethernet_CAN evaluation kits look really good as well.

Might want to change the banner / announcement headline from:

 

"Stellariti POTM Contest is Open. Win 10 LM3S8962 OLED Evaluation Kits!"

..to...

"Stellarisiti POTM Contest is Open. Win one of 10 LM3S8962 OLED Evaluation Kits!"

 

To correct the site name ( ), and to make sure no one claims false advertising.

Well if they do claim false advertising they'll have to find this "Stellariti" company first!

Hmmm, almost the end of the month and only one entry..... Is Dec 31st the last day to add a post? My project is getting closer, but I still have some HW issues, and so far I have only gotten it to the proto board stage (no real PCB)
