Contest submissions will be judged on the following criteria:
| Category | Score | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| Solution uses the EdgeX Foundry platform | Yes/No | No disqualifies the solution from competition |
| Incorporation of EdgeX Best demonstration of the strengths and capabilities of EdgeX through many of the following
| 35 | How well and to what degree does the contest solution incorporate EdgeX and highlight its capabilities? |
| Solution is a smart * application | Yes/No | No disqualifies the solution from competition |
| Relevance Best demonstration on how to solve a real world, smart * use case that most:
| 25 | Does the solution offer a real example of how to solve a meaningful use case in the smart * arena? |
| Does the solution incorporate restricted IP? | Yes/No | If the solution contains restricted IP, this may disqualify the solution if it cannot be discussed or shown publically |
| Productization Closest to a viable, fully capable and deployable solution to satisfy the suggested real world use case via:
| 20 | How easy is it (or would it be) to productize the contest solution? |
Innovation
| 10 | Is the solution novel, unique and thought provoking? Does the solution bring a unique perspective to how EdgeX may be used and even serve as information for the community to consider new or enhanced EdgeX features? How is the solution making the solution "smart"? Can you dream big? Making one smart light pole on the street is the basics. Making multiple smart light poles communicate with each other to gain additional insights is the dream. |
| Ease of Use Solution that is the easiest to setup, use, maintain as evaluated through:
| 10 | How easy would it be for users to accept and use the solution? Would it be a solution understood-by-the-man on the street? |
| TOTAL Score | 100 | Possible points per solution |
Evaluation
A panel of three IoT/edge experts and the EdgeX TSC members will judge the contest solutions. Each judge will score the projects using the criteria above - scoring each contest solution between 0-100 points. EdgeX TSC members will also score the projects using the same criteria but the TSC member scores will be averaged to provide a single score which will serve as the fourth judge in the contest. Winners will be determined on the highest total score count from the judges.
