Challenge
Challenge
The Lightship Winter Challenge gives you the chance to turn your creativity and AR skills into cash! Entrants will submit a demo video and project code base to showcase their build. Feel free to use our Voyage App templates as part of your submission!
Remember, our technology encourages people to go outside, exercise, and maybe most importantly, connect with other people in the world. These are attributes we hope to see baked into the AR experiences you create!
The Lightship Winter challenge runs from 1p PT December 13th, 2021 through 11:59p PT January 19, 2022. After January 19, 2022, our team of judges will evaluate entrants based on the criteria outlined in the "prizes"section below.
Submissions are already open, what are you waiting for?
