##Wearable Computing Wearable. Something in between Ubiquitous computing Body computing. Adafruit explains it better.

##'Secret' ingredient ###Xadow

  • We're including battery, USB, and a breakout board

###Judge Prize

  • Right now me and Blaine, May add more.
  • Basically dictatorship, well know what we like when we see it
  • Must use our 'secret' ingredient, the Xadow platform.
  • You may purchase additional parts but costs will be limited to keep everyone on a level playing field. All contingent upon judge approval with proof of purchase upon request. 100?
  • Must upload source code, hardware designs, BOM, etc to GitHub at contest close for judges to evaluate. Someone should be able to reproduce your project based on your GitHub repo.

###Jury
