Circuit Cellar Design Challenge results are in!
Circuit Cellar have announced the results of the mbed NXP Design Challenge!
Well done to Hexley Ball who won first place with his smart electronic load; a really impressive bit of kit using just about every interface on the mbed to provide amazing levels of functionality, all very professionally executed with a superb writeup!
For all the winners, see the mbed Design Challenge page in the Cookbook.
This was apparently the biggest response Circuit Cellar have ever had to a design competition, so well done to everyone who took part! I know there were some amazing entries that didn't get a mention as the competition was so tough and the judging strict on full write-ups, so please share your work on the site so others can benefit from all the hard work you put in!

I saw all entries and I am sure 100% that judging was unfair.
My full project with detail documentation, large amount of flow charts, images, source codes for C code of mbed and 2 java applets source codes and 2 videos was work of many months, while some others have not done so work as me.
New libraries was developed for Camera module and fixed of very important ethernet libraries also as HTTP Web Server and TCP settings. The new way of representation of images from received TCP/IP packets on the Java applet was presented.
But judge was not realise this deep work on mbed as also on the Java applets.
So I reject they offer for Distinctive Excellence.
This is the first time when I really saw so unfair judging. So I decide to stop any participation on Circuit Cellar future contests because I feel that judge are to noobs to judge the advanced projects.
If you feel same then I am not alone who think the same.
One other good thing is to make a POLL and see what realy the mbed community think about all projects in the contest. It will be interesting if the poll will show the real winner maybe after that I will post my whole project to the mbed website.
