PCBWay is an online manufacturer of custom printed circuit boards. In addition to the creation of custom PCBs, anyone can publish their own project, available to other users of the website of PCBWay. When a customer purchases the printed circuit board, a "commission" is paid to the developer. In these days, something new has come out: the fifth PCBWay PCB design contest. It is a competition between developers of PCB (= printed circuit) designs.
Anyone can publish a project related to:
- Next-generation hardware: Home automation, IoT, wearables, embedded electronics or other.
- Projects related to ecology: such as, for example, solar batteries and tools for environmental monitoring.
- Free theme projects: in case the project does not fall into the previous categories.
The fifth PCBWay PCB design contest has just started. Projects can be submitted from 1 September 2022 to 31 December 2022. Subsequently, they will be evaluated in January 2023 and the results will be announced on February 6, 2023.
The prizes are also interesting.
- For the first place: $1500 Cash + $200 Coupon +Raspberry Pi 4 Model B-4GB.
- For the runner-up: $1000 Cash + $100 Coupon + Raspberry Pi 4 Model B-2GB (there are 2 potential runners-up).
- For the third place: $500 Cash + $50 Coupon + Arduino Mega 2560 Rev3 (there are 3 potential third classified).
- For 10 more classified: $100 Cash + $20 Coupon + $10 Coupon for 3D printing + Digital High-Precision Automatic Multimeter.
- Participation Prize: Raspberry Pi Pico.
