The challenge
Good news everyone! Due to feedback from the community we decided to extend the contest by 1 month. Submit your entries by June 15th! We can't wait to see what you build!
The robot overlords are arriving. Will you welcome them, or will you fight?
Imagination Technologies invites you to participate in the creation of what might become the next SkyNet, using their latest technology, the Creator Ci20.
Creator Ci20 is a brand new (and purple!) microcomputer from Imagination that packs a dual-core MIPS CPU and supports OpenGL ES 2.0 graphics and 1080p video. In addition, the boards features integrated connectivity (Wi-Fi and Bluetooth), on-board memory (1 GB RAM, 8 Gb flash), a dedicated camera interface and other cool features. Ci20 runs multiple Linux distributions (e.g. Debian 8) as well as Android 5.1 Lollipop.
Design the best looking Hunter-Killer drone, T-1 tank, T-800 clone, or Terminator™ style robot using the Creator Ci20.
Win awesome prizes that will help to transform you into a cyborg!
