Enter The ISWC Design Competition!
Submit your e-textiles design for a chance to win some SparkFun gear!
ISWC 2013, the seventeenth annual International Symposium on Wearable Computers, is (and I quote) "the premier forum for wearable computing and issues related to on-body and worn mobile technologies. ISWC 2013 will bring together researchers, product vendors, fashion designers, textile manufacturers, users, and related professionals to share information and advances in wearable computing." The event is held September 9-12 in Zurich, Switzerland.
Part of the ISWC IS a design contest open to the public! Our very own e-textiles guru, Dia Campbell, is one of the jurors and the prizes are provided by SparkFun.
The deadline is approaching quickly (June 30th), but there is still time to submit your creation. The full rules of the competition can be found here. Submissions will be judged based on:
- Concept
- Technology
- Execution
- Communication
- Audience/Usability
Check out the ISWC website to read the rules and submit your design. Good luck!
