[Dprglist] 2 cool looking contests - any ideas / interest from DPRG?

[Carl Ott]

Seems like the AARP contest should be well aligned with DPRG interests.
And this contest is only around concepts at this point - not implementation.
Brainstorming starts with an everyday problem or challenge.
Any ideas?

The Sparkfun RedBoard Artemis looks like a cool platform. Maybe somebody's
interested to attach some IR sensors & build a tensor flow model for the
challenge line following course?
