Dear HNers!
We're giving away an e-paper development kit, which includes a WiFi enabled waterproof e-paper tablet and server software (usually priced at 239 EUR). You'll be able to develop your own e-paper application/solution in a matter of days using regular HTML, CSS and JS. See our web (http://www.visionect.com) for more information.
The device comes with no strings attached, we'll even cover the shipping expenses and throw in additional support if you need it.
Every poster in this thread that presents his idea of what he'd like to build or develop using our development kit in a comment will be put in a prize pool. You'll need to tag idea comments with #VISIONECTIDEA so it's easier for us to parse the thread. A computer will pick a random winner on Monday 9. of June at 16.00 CET. We'll ask you for contact/shipping information at that point.
There are a couple of ideas of what you can build on our blog (http://blog.visionect.com) to get your creative juices started.
TL;DR;
- Free e-paper development kit, includes a 6" waterproof tablet (239 EUR value)
- Post an idea on what you'd develop with it, tag it with #VISIONECTIDEA
- Random winning post will be picked on Monday 16.00 CET
I work at a web and we manage dozens of websites. I have had the idea for some months to create a display which would be on at all times to show the current latency and which servers are currently offline. Sometimes I'm on my phone or my phone is dead and we need to know these types of things before they even happen. With the format of the tablet, I could take it with me when I don't work in the office. Myu name is Simon and I come from Canada, you can contact me at this address : simlevesque@kromaentreprises.com
