XuanTie RISC-V Contest on Innovation of Applications, organized by the T-Head Open Chip Community, has been held for the third time in a row. Over the past two years, nearly 3,000 developers joined the competition and developed over 500 innovative solutions covering Industrial Intelligence, Robotics, Visual Devices, Wearables, In-vehicle devices, Carbon neutrality, Smart Community, Smart home, etc.
“This contest is an important and influential competition in the RISC-V community. With the support of T-head, along with the broader RISC-V community, RISC-V hardware has seen increased integration with operation systems such as Android and Ubuntu. With more RISC-V single board computers now available, developers can explore richer, innovative applications. As developers around the world tap into the potential of RISC-V, we are excited to see the tremendous innovation that is unleashed through this competition.” Calista Redmond, the CEO of RISC-V International said.
This year T-Head make the high-performance boards accessible for the global developers. You can submit you idea and apply for the board, develop your ideas with these boards.
