The 2021 Adaptive Computing Challenge at hackster.io will reward top Xilinx development projects up to $10,000 (prizes are all Visa gift cards). You can apply for free hardware to compete in the contest until October 15, 2021. Final submissions are due February 28, 2022. The Xilinx University Program is sponsoring an additional $2500 prize for college students.
There are three main categories in the contest: Edge Computing, Data Center AI and Big Data Analytics. The edge computing requires a solution running on the Xilinx Kria KV260 Vision AI Starter Kit. Data center AI must use the Xilinx VCK5000 development card. Big data analytics requires the Xilinx Big Data Analytics card (not much information on this board).
The Kria KV260 Vision AI Starter Kit is listed at $199 but currently out of stock at most distributors. It is meant for vision application development for Edge computing. It has multiple camera interfaces including support for the Raspberry Pi camera module. Multiple cameras are supported by using additional interfaces such as IAS or USB. A power supply is also required. One is also included in the basic accessory pack which also includes a 13MP camera module, available from Xilinx for $59.
