*The following contest deadline is Friday, July 17. Enter TODAY for your chance to win!

Do you dream of creating a solution to make monitoring health and fitness activities easier? Using near field communication (NFC) in your designs can help! We want to hear your ideas for the next wearable design based on our RF430FRL15xH NFC sensor transponder in our ultimate NFC wearable design contest. There’s no need to actually create your design just yet — all you need to do is share your concept with us. If your design concept wins, you’ll receive the tools you need to get started and potentially be eligible to win a Sony® SW3 SmartWatch 3 SWR50. Additionally, finalists will have the opportunity to be featured in a blog post on the Launch Your Design blog.

Here’s how you can enter to win (full rules and eligibility requirements can be found here):

  1. Submit your IoT design idea that incorporates TI’s RF430FRL15xH NFC sensor transponder at the TI E2E™ Launch Your Design Portal by July 17, 2015.
  2. A panel of three judges, including representatives from TI as well as Holly Lawrence, marketing and social media manager for Digilent Inc., will judge the entries based on criteria such as product/solution uniqueness, contemporary (”coolness”) factor and overall TI semiconductor usage.
  3. Ten winners will receive the RF430FRL15xH  NFC sensor transponder and any of the following TI products from the list below:
    1. Sensor Hub BoosterPack: Evaluate the RF430FRL15xH  NFC sensor transponder with seven on-board sensors, including motion tracking, a pressure sensor, humidity and ambient temperature sensors, ambient and infrared sensors and a non-contact infrared temperature sensor.
    2. TRF7970A evaluation module: Test the performance of RFID/ NFC transceivers, custom firmware, customer designed antennas and potential transponders for a customer-defined RFID/NFC application.
    3. MSP430 flash emulation tool: Features a USB debugging interface to connect any MSP430™ microcontroller (MCU) to a PC for real-time, in-system programming and debugging.
    4. NFC sensor transponder patch: Features a flexible PCB, small form factor, battery less design with an integrated temperature that can be used as the development platform.
    5. AFE4403 analog front-end EVM: A fully-integrated analog front-end (AFE) EVM suited for heart rate monitors and pulse oximeter applications.
    6. After the ten winners have been determined and contacted on July 24, 2015, each will have until Sept. 18, 2015 to complete their design. One completed design submission will be selected as the winner for the grand prize: a Sony SW3 SmartWatch 3 SWR50.

If you have any questions while creating your design concept, be sure to head over to our TI E2E community, where a TI expert can help you out.

By entering this promotion, you represent that you are a product or software developer, and should you win this promotion, you will use the EVM only in a research and development setting to facilitate feasibility evaluation, experimentation, or scientific analysis and not for any consumer or household use or as a part or subassembly in any finished product.
