The WIZnet iEthernet Design Contest 2007 gave engineers throughout the embedded design community a chance to join the Ethernet revolution while competing for a share of $15,000 in cash prizes and international recognition. Designers from around the world quickly stepped up to the challenge by incorporating WIZnet’s W5100 hardwired TCP/IP Ethernet controller in innovative embedded projects. Within weeks of the contest launch, designers began submitting their exciting, next-generation, Ethernet-enabled embedded systems. After spending many long days and nights closely studying the entries and judging them on their technical merit, originality, usefulness, cost-effectiveness, and design optimization, the judges presented their scores to the contest administrator. The results are now final, and we’re proud to announce the winners. Congratulations to everyone who took part in the contest!
