For the second edition of this University award at the European level, B & R seeks innovative concepts, creative solutions, practical applications and projects of scientific research in all technical disciplines. To participate, it is essential that the project incorporate Powerlink technology in its development. In addition the open source of OpenPowerlink is also available for use in practical applications.

Powerlink is the only protocol in real-time, based on standard Ethernet, which can be implemented in a non-proprietary hardware. With OpenPowerlink, is there a solution to open source that can be adapted according to needs and in very diverse areas. Applications that require high precision and speed in their cycle times can be implemented quickly and with a significant reduction of costs.

In June 2010, the ideas presented will be valued by a jury of experts qualified in the fields of research and commercial. A few important prizes of 10,000, 5,000 and 2,500 euros await winners projects. "26 Ideas of great technological interest submitted to contest last year were the demonstration of the high academic level and the extraordinary special commitment of the students," explains Stefan Schönegger, product manager of B & R and member of the jury.
