Simulink Student Challenge – Targeting Hardware: Win up to $500!

One of my favorite feature in R2012a is the Simulink Support for Target Hardware.

Personally, I use it for many purposes. I use the Arduino target to control my homemade sous-vide cooking system and I use the LEGO target to teach Simulink and Model-Based Design.

What about you?

To see how students are using this feature and connecting Simulink to hardware, we are are happy to announce the Simulink Student Challenge: Targeting Hardware

As explained by Seth and Jason, we offer you the possibility to win up to $500 by sharing videos showing how you are connecting Simulink to hardware!

How to participate

To enter all you need to do is:

  1. Create an original video for YouTube that includes:
    • Short introduction to the problem you solved or application you developed using Simulink Support for Target Hardware
    • Demonstration of how you used Simulink Support for Target Hardware
  2. Upload your video to YouTube with the tag "#Simulinkhardware."
  3. Submit a Simulink Student Challenge – Targeting Hardware entry form by August, 31, 2012 31 August 2012 before 5:00 PM EST (10:00 PM GMT)

    Hello!
    As I understand the contest is over and there should be a list of winners. Unfortunately I can’t find any update about this. :( Anything new so far?

Wrap code fragments inside <pre> tags, like this:

<pre class="code">
a = magic(3);
sum(a)
</pre>

If you have a "<" character in your code, either follow it with a space or replace it with "&lt;" (including the semicolon).
