On July 27, the reporter learned from Brother Pingtou that the Xuantie Cup Global RISC-V Application Innovation Competition officially launched registration. This competition uses three mass-production high-performance development boards with built-in Xuantie RISC-V processor, based on Pingtou's new open source Android 13 operating system SDK and other software stacks, developers can experience Android, openKylin and other operating systems on RISC-V high-performance hardware for the first time and directly develop related applications, and explore application innovations in areas such as embodied intelligence, vehicle devices, XR, and industrial control / robot.

The Xuantie Cup RISC-V Application Innovation Competition, initiated by the flat-headed Brother Chip Open Community, has been held for the third year in a row. Over the past two years, the competition has attracted nearly 3000 developers, making it one of the largest and most anticipated competitions in RISC-V 's open source hardware field. This year's competition will be upgraded again, and professional developers will be recruited around the world for the first time.

"the Xuan tie Cup RISC-V Application Innovation Competition is an important and influential event in the RISC-V community. With the joint efforts of Pingtou and the RISC-V community, RISC-V hardware has been deeply integrated with operating systems such as Android and Ubuntu. Based on this and with the introduction of more RISC-V single board computers, developers can explore richer and more innovative applications. We are looking forward to more innovation in the competition." Said CEO Calista Redmond of the RISC-V International Foundation.

It is understood that this competition recommends three development boards with built-in metaphysical RISC-V high-performance processors: Silicon Speed Lichee Pi4A, Jiannan K230 and Calculus Huashan School, which can achieve full coverage of different application requirements, such as high performance, high energy efficiency, and multimode, and support Vector 1.0standard for the first time, greatly enhancing the experience of high computing demand scenarios.

Pingtou also announced the open source of the latest Android SDK, which can run Android 13 smoothly for the first time on the Xuan tie RISC-V high-performance development board, supporting the training of AI models. At present, Pingtou has completed the adaptation of high-performance development boards to mainstream operating systems at home and abroad, such as Android, Ubuntu, openKylin, and Kokai WebOS, opening up a new space for developers to develop innovative applications.

The competition is divided into three stages: registration, development and selection. Developers will be the first to experience RISC-V hardware and submit projects online in Pingtou's "Cloud Lab". Excellent projects will also receive special technical support to help solve development problems and improve project completion. The results of the competition are expected to be announced in November this year. In addition to the generous bonus, the boutique project will also be submitted to the Zhangjiang Research Institute of Fudan University for a proof-of-concept to help potential innovative applications fall to the ground faster.

The extensive mass production of Xuan tie's high-performance RISC-V hardware really makes RISC-V a new option within the reach of developers, pushing RISC-V into a key developer ecological year. Through the competition platform, Pingtou will gradually open up the software and hardware full stack of RISC-V technology capabilities, and work with global partners to promote RISC-V development ecology, attract more developers to experience the Pratt & Whitney computing of high-performance RISC-V, and incubate richer RISC-V innovative applications. " Yang Jing, vice president of Pingtou ecology, said.

It is reported that this year's competition organizing committee will set up a "Xuan tie RISC-V training camp" in Shenzhen, Shanghai, Beijing and other places to invite industry experts to share their development experience and help developers get started with developing applications more quickly. In addition, Xuan tie developer Day, with a big name as the "one-day mentor team", will also be held during the RISC-V China Summit on August 24.
