Hello there everybody,

We are BLOCKS - an open hardware & software platform for wearable technology. An Imperial College student company. 

 

Having published our video back in March (http://goo.gl/hEI0LW) we were featured in the world's most well-known tech magazines such as Wired, TechCrunch and Engadget. 

 

BLOCKS was recently nominated to compete in the final of the Make It Wearable Challenge for a chance to win $500,000 with full backing from Intel Corporation (makeit.intel.com/finalists).

 

We are looking for passionate hardware & software developers to join our team for a challenging but exciting new project. BLOCKS development covers multiple areas of tech:

- Sensor integration and data processing (e.g. heart rate, motion, gps and gsm data) 

- Microcontroller programming with the (amazing) Intel Edison board - https://www.sparkfun.com/products/13024

- Custom Linux OS and device driver programming - http://tizen.org

- Android application development 

- PCB design 

 

If you think you have what it takes to build a game changing, brand new open-source platform, get in touch with us via te...@chooseblocks.com

 

Yours,

Serge & Team BLOCKS
