Resilient America Preparedness Challenge – Submissions Now Open!

What if your next edge AI project could help protect communities before disaster strikes?

Submissions are now open for the Resilient America Preparedness Challenge, inviting developers, researchers, makers, and startups to build intelligent edge AI solutions that strengthen disaster preparedness, response, and recovery.

We’re looking for innovations that can make a real-world difference, including:

  • Wildfire detection and environmental sensing
  • Infrastructure monitoring
  • Early warning systems
  • On-device AI for first responders
  • Mission-critical systems that operate when connectivity is limited

This challenge is made possible through a collaboration between Qualcomm,  ArduinoEdge Impulse, and the EDGE AI FOUNDATION, bringing together powerful hardware, AI development tools, and a global community of innovators.

Whether you’re building your first prototype or developing a production-ready solution, this is your opportunity to create technology with lasting impact.

Submissions are now open.
