DescriptionThe 6th annual SICK$10K Challenge hosted by SICK, Inc. is officially open for the 2024-2025 academic year! SICK will select fifteen teams to participate in the challenge and provide the chosen teams with a SICK 360-degree multi-layer LiDAR called the multiScan which the school can keep at the conclusion of the contest in March 2025.  The teams will be challenged to solve a problem, create a solution, and bring a new application that utilizes the SICK scanner in any industry. This contest provides student teams the opportunity to win up to $10,000 cash and an all-expenses paid trip to Germany to visit the SICK world HQ in Waldkirch! This contest can also be part of your curriculum as a capstone project or senior design challenge.  Nothing like real-world experience that counts for a school project – a solid twofer!Please see links below for more information and feel free to reach out to me directly with questions.Official Contest SiteTeam Registration2023-24 Challenge Entries2023-24 Challenge Winners
