SILICON VALLEY: Freescale challenges engineers to build walking robots and Tower Systems

Freescale Semiconductor used the Embedded Systems Conference in San Jose this week to announce its Make It Challenge design contest, which asks engineers to build a robot or system design based on the firm’s latest sensor development kit. In other words, a walking robot or a Freescale Tower System.
Especially for the contest, Freescale says it has released a sensor development kit and new Tower Mechatronics Board contestants can use for their designs.
