frames are visuals, screenshots, or flowchart sketches to provide visual examples of how the app will look. Visuals may include a login screen, splash page, home page, user profile, or any screen necessary to convey user experience. Popular wireframing tools are: Fluid UI, InVision, and Balsamiq, but feel free to use your favorite tool of choice.
*Style Guides provide guidance on front-end user interface design elements such as typography and color palette. Find inspiration here to create your own Style Guide!
*Information Architectures look like this. The purpose is to organize the apps information, label it, and determine how it will flow.
Empathetic (20 points): Does the submission convey a clear understanding of the mission of the app? Do the proposed app functionality and features facilitate a platform that allows user empathy to be assessed before and after experiences?
Immersive (20 points): Does the submission enable a user experience that is fully immersive?
Addictive (20 points): Has the competitor proposed significant gamification strategies in order to attract and retain an engaged user base? Are there substantive design or functionality elements included in the proposal that are aimed at user engagement?
Adoptable (20 points): How easily adoptable is the proposed technology? Is the app smartphone compatible? Will users need to purchase software or additional hardware equipment in order to access the app? All proposed hardware must be commercially available for purchase.
Feasible (20 points): Is the overall proposal according to a well-reasoned plan for implementation? Are all proposed figures and estimates justifiably accurate?
Note: In order to win, a competitor does not need to have all resources or experience to be able to develop the full product proposed. The purpose of this challenge is to gain theoretical write ups or ideas for how the app/game will be designed.
No specific qualifications or expertise in the field of empathy, virtual or augmented reality, or app development is required. Prize organizers encourage outside individuals and non-expert teams to compete and propose new solutions.
Submissions must be made online (only), via upload to the HeroX.com website, on or before 4:59 pm Eastern Time on June 1st, 2018. All uploads must be in PDF format. No late submissions will be accepted.
Innovator will retain all intellectual property rights to their technology. The Sponsor will require the Innovator to share a license to the intellectual property contained in the Submission. This allows both the Innovator and Sponsor to independently use the intellectual property for their own use.
In the case of no winner, KEO Marketing reserves the right to withhold the Prize amount. In place of the original prize amount, KEO Marketing may issue a Consolation Prize to the team or individual closest to the winning solution.
The determination of the winners will be made by industry experts in gaming, social psychology, empathy and other related fields.
I’m writing to announce that the deadline for the Building Empathy Challenge has been extended to next Friday, June 8th at 2pm PST / 5pm EST! You now have until that time to register and submit your proposal or make any edits to your current submission.
That's right, the Building Empathy Challenge will be closing this coming June 1st at 4:59 pm Eastern Time (New York/USA).

Introduction
Do you need new hardware to build a modern mesh network? This doesn't need to be the case with ASUS. The AiMesh firmware presented at CES offers the possibility of building a smart wireless network based on products from the brand you already have in house. Today we are taking a first look at this new technology.
Mesh is the magic word on the Wi-Fi market. It is the solution to one of the major WiFi network problems in an average home or business: coverage. By placing multiple access points or using a power line network, the coverage is increased, and you benefit from a reliable connection everywhere. But mesh is even more convenient - there is no need for wired network connections at all. Thanks to a smart network protocol, the access points are wirelessly interconnected, so you have wireless coverage without any hassle. Each access point is both a transmitter and a receiver, so you can build endlessly. The more “nodes” you place, the greater the coverage becomes.
Brands such as TP-Link and Linksys have already launched products that use this technology. Netgear is also there with them. Their Orbi system used a spoke network topology at first, and later also received mesh functionality. ASUS have entered this market with their Lyra family. You can purchase the Lyra set of three nodes for 380 pounds / 428 euros on average.
What ASUS have now introduced is making this technology available to existing routers, under the name AiMesh. That's what we tested with a RT-AC86U router, which can be found in our Price Comparison for an average of 220 pounds / 249 euros.
AiMesh makes it possible to deploy existing ASUS routers in a wireless network and use them as either a base station or a node. AiMesh and Lyra are two really different products. Where the Lyra series is aimed at optimal user-friendliness, the new AiMesh firmware is positioned as an alternative with better performance.
We upgraded the RT-AC86U's firmware.
ASUS' AiMesh is an alternative to the user-friendly Lyra mesh system.
The connection between router and node can be made wirelessly or by cable. If they are connected by both methods, the AiMesh firmware automatically chooses the most optimal route, so you do not need to worry about that. If the best route is the 2.4 GHz band, this will be selected; if the 5 GHz band is better, then that will be selected. If you have a tri-band router, one of the two 5 GHz bands is used.
AiMesh is currently supported on the RT-AC86U, RT-AC2900, RT-AC68U and RT-AC1900P. Soon the ROG Rapture GT-AC5300, RT-AC5300 and RT-AC88U will also get the upgrade. More information can be found on ASUS' dedicated AiMesh website.
ASUS is not the only manufacturer that offers this solution. The German AVM has also developed a similar solution for its Fritz!Box routers. The software is currently only available as beta on the AVM website, but is also suitable for a large number of products: Fritz!Box 7590,7490, Fritz!WLAN Repeater 1750E, 1160, 310 en 450E, Fritz!Powerline 1260E, 1240E, 540E and 546E.
