<p><b>1st place: <a target="_blank" href="https://medium.com/inmoodforlife/in-the-mood-for-life-open-iot-challenge-final-report-a0c19482118c#.dmcxrn7b5">InMoodforLife</a></b><br>
An application to analyze and monitor sleep patterns of people affected by bipolar disorder to improve the therapeutic approach, react, and adapt the treatment faster. The solution was built using an off-the-shelf sleep monitor, Raspberry Pi, Eclipse Vert.x, and Warp 10. The team continues to develop the solution and their roadmap includes device management integration using Eclipse hawkBit and Eclipse Hono. The InMoodforLife team also plans to work with psychiatrists to validate the sleep architecture analysis of the project.</p>

<p><b>2nd place: <a target="_blank" href="http://krishi-iot.blogspot.de/2017/02/krishi-iot-final-report.html">krishi IoT</a></b><br>
A solution to help farmers execute agricultural operations in a smarter and efficient way. It includes smart sensors, a gateway device with GSM-based Internet connectivity, a mobile app, and a web app (powered by IBM Bluemix and CloudFoundry). krishi IoT devices retrieve the sensor parameters (such as temperature, humidity, soil moisture, crop images, etc), and relays the information to local krishi IoT gateway. The solutions use many Eclipse projects including Vorto, Paho, Mosquitto, Kura, Kapua, and Hono and well as IBM Bluemix, Cloudfoundry, IBM Bluemix, and Bitreactive’s Reactive Blocks.</p>

<p><b>3rd place: <a target="_blank" href="https://eneristics.wordpress.com/2017/02/27/rhds-final-report-what-we-accomplished/">RHDS</a></b><br>
Residential Home Diagnostics System (RHDS) is smart energy IoT solution that performs home diagnostics for residents. The solution uses three Eclipse projects: Kura, Leshan, and Wakaama as well as open protocols such as MQTT, CoAP, LWM2M, among other technology.</p>

<p><b>Special Acknowledgement</b></p>
<p>The judging panel would also like to acknowledge the submission from <a target="_blank" href="https://agrinode.blogspot.de/2017/02/final-report-for-open-iot-challenge-30.html">AgriNode</a>. The team developed a Wireless Sensor Network system consisting of a gateway and sensor nodes. The system was built using Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and open source IoT software (Eclipse Kura, Reactive Blocks).</p>

<p>The Open IoT Developer Challenge is an annual challenge organized by the Eclipse IoT Working Group, in collaboration with the sponsors Bitreactive, Bosch SI, Eurotech, MicroEJ, and Red Hat. Participants are given three months to create an IoT solution using open source software and open standards. The three winners are selected by a panel of judges, who evaluate the participating solutions based on the applicability of a solution to a specific industry, innovation, completeness, use of open source and open standards, and communication with the larger community.</p>
