FlowBotics Studio App Contest 2015 - CLOSED -

All app creators keep their IP :slight_smile:

We added an extra point (#9) concerning your question since we believe many others may be wondering about this.

firmata

So if you use firmata for arduino you will get a point in the “can interface with arduino” thingy?

Arduino interfacing & bonus points

Hi Mr_Boo,

Indeed, any form of meaningful (serves a purpose / is useful to the app) interaction with Arduino and your robotic app will earn you this bonus point.

FlowBotics Studio can run on Linux?

I mainly use Linux for programming.

Linux & FBS

Hi Silux,

Currently, it is not possible to do so natively. Wine may work but usually you will be stopped by access violations. We are aware of this and it is in the road map for FBS (FlowBotics Studio). At this time, the best alternative is to run it in a VM (which works great).

Best way to add support for

Best way to add support for Linux is to start the project with being cross platform in mind. If you already use Java or Python it should be easy to port.
I have a Windows10 virtual machine purposedly tuned for these kind of programs:)

Links for registration

There will be a small delay in activating/displaying the links for registration for coupon codes. Unfortunately, I am somewhat new to Drupal and faced a few issues with the integration of a new module. We will keep you updated concerning this and fix it ASAP.

Hello to all who entered this contest!

This is a friendly reminder to let you know the contest deadline is soon (Sunday, December 6, 2015).

Please feel free to reply here or on the support forum if you have any questions!

Less than two weeks left!

I am quite curious to see what kind of entries we will receive!

Last weekend before the submission deadline!

How is your work progressing with your FlowBotics Studio applications? Did you face any problems and would need help with them?

Whatever feedback you have concerning this challenge, please bring it forward! :slight_smile:

Time

I’m afraid I got sidetracked by a million other things and my experiments with FlowBotics Studio got lost in the ether. I’d love to get back to tinkering with it but don’t see any chance of completing anything in time for the deadline. I look forward to seeing what the others have come up with.

Announcement of winning entries

Unfortunately, we did not receive any entries that met the requirements of the competition. The prizes offered will be used for a different challenge by RobotShop in the future.

Wha?!

Oh man - none at all!

Due to personal circumstances I had to put the app I was developing (a universal Robot controller) on the shelf.

I really wish I had been able to finish this and submit it! :frowning:
