InnovateAsia 2012 and The 1st Asia-Pacific Workshop Come to a Grand Conclusion!
The grand finale of Altera InnovateAsia 2012 was hosted this year in Xiamen, the ancient and beautiful port city of China. Hosting teams from both Taiwanese universities and Chinese universities, ten championship teams went head to head against each other for the cross-straits championship. InnovateAsia is an annual design competition hosted by Altera, Terasic, and partner companies where students from any university can enter and submit a design entry centered on FPGA application. This year's contest was co-sponsored by Linear and ISSI. Students first compete locally until the top five final teams from both China and Taiwan are selected to join at one location to be judged together. With international experts from Altera flying in to review the projects, the top ten teams were under great pressure to perform well, and the result was a stunning collection of varied applications.
