Eager to win a trip into space, Hackaday's hardware hackers propose guided rockets and mobile 3D printers | VentureBeat | Gadgets | by Dean Takahashi
Summary
Mike Szczys, the managing editor of Hackaday.com, said in a statement, “We’ve been receiving a wide range of projects that can be called serious, innovative, playful, and awe-inspiring. Carriers to choose from are the winner’s prerogative but it could be Virgin Galactic, XCOR Aerospace, or perhaps even the World View balloon that’s ramping up to a launch. The peer judges include some notable figures in hardware hacking: The preliminary submissions were accepted through June 28 for contestants over 13. The awards will be judged on the basis of actual physical hardware built, the ability to connect to the Internet, and the degree of openness based on the use of open-source technologies. The Hackaday Prize is sponsored by Pasadena, Calif.-based SupplyFrame, a tech and media company that targets electronics professionals.
