We’re thrilled to finally unveil the 10 incredible projects selected to receive an Axelera AI Project Kit and bring their AI innovation to life. It took a bit of time to finalise the list (all the ideas we received were genuinely that good 😅), but the wait is over…
Here are the projects we’re proud to support through the building phase of the challenge:
- 🦾
@llrds - BroBot: Real-time pose feedback and training assistant using vision AI. - 🌿

👏 Huge congratulations to our Pioneer 10 – your ideas really blew our minds. To everyone else: your submissions were all genuinely outstanding. This selection has been seriously tough, and caused arguments within the company that have ruined some friendships forever - that’s how good they were.
If we could send out 100 kits, we would. This definitely won’t be the last Axelera AI challenge, so stay tuned for more.
So please join me in congratulating the Pioneer 10!
👉 And to the Pioneer 10, help us spread the word – share this announcement on your social media and let the world know about your project! Use your network to build some buzz around your build. 💬📢
🛠️ Let the building begin.
