Students are asked to form interdisciplinary teams of two to four students to design a user experience prototype that solves a real-world problem. From these groups, a representative team from each school presents its work to Microsoft.\r\n

2014 Design Challenge<\/h2>\r\nIn a world with a billion sensors, how will we make sense of it all? <\/b>\r\n\r\nIn our daily lives we encounter sensors all the time, like when a motion sensor turns a light on in a dark place, or when a carbon monoxide detector tell us that the air is becoming hazardous. Sensors extend our abilities to see, hear, and feel far beyond what we ourselves can take in\u2014from arrays of telescopes sensing the edges of the universe to nano-scale biological sensors amplifying our own sense of smell.\r\n\r\nIn a world with a billion sensors, how will we make sense of it all?\r\n\r\nHow will sensors change the way we perceive not only our environment but ourselves and others?\r\n\r\nHow will sensors change the way we live and work?\r\n\r\nWhat interfaces, services, devices and experiences will be necessary to make sense of it all and avoid sensory overload?\r\n\r\nWhat are key problems this data can be used to help solve, what new troubles can we anticipate it creates?\r\n
