The report page limit is 10 pages. Reports must be smaller than 10 pages including references and any appendices.
Submissions are single blind. PLEASE specify the names of the team members in the report.
For formatting, please one of the following templates:
Please contact Ashwin Rao if you face issues in using any of the templates. The templates and the example PDF files generated from these templates are available in the following git repository: https://version.helsinki.fi/espc/report-templates/.
Video
For the video, please ensure that the video has a duration of less than 10 minutes (600 seconds) and that you demonstrate a your solution in the video.
The project competition will be open to students, and the participants are expected to design, build, deploy, and demonstrate an end-to-end solution for environmental sensing. This competition gives students a chance to test their abstract knowledge against complex real-life problems. Student groups are also free to submit their on-going course projects, and projects that are part of their thesis.
Please note that this page is under development, and the information will be updated till the registration deadline (10.10.2022). The registration link is available at the bottom of this page.
