Insight4 would like to offer students the opportunity to develop an application
of their choice on the Google Android Mobile OS platform. We are looking for
students who are creative, have strong technical skills, are willing to challenge
themselves, and are motivated to set their own goals.
Android is the first complete, open, and free mobile platform. Details: http://code.google.com/android/
Students would have an initial meeting with Insight4’s marketing director
to present their Android application idea and decide on the final project brief.
Ideas for applications include:
• Social networking
• Media consumption, management, editing, or sharing, e.g., photos
• Productivity and collaboration such as email, IM, calendar, etc.
• Gaming
• News and information
• Rethinking of traditional user interfaces
• Use of mash-up functionality
• Use of location-based services
• Humanitarian benefits
• Applications in service of global economic development
• Whatever you're excited about!
Enter the Android Developer Challenge!
Students will also have the opportunity to submit their application to the Android
Developer Challenge II in the second half of 2008. Insight4 will sponsor and
assist with the submission of the application. For further information about
the challenge please visit: http://code.google.com/android/adc.html
