Let’s get physical this week. Got an Arduino? Maybe a phone-controlled front door? Mashup the Twilio API with something physical and you could win yourself $100 in Twilio credit, Twilio swag, and (since we’re getting physical) a Parrot Quadricopter AR Drone that’s fully programmable using their open API!
Since this contest is a little more involved, you’ll have two weeks to get an awesome project together.
Here are some great videos and tutorials to get you started on your hardware hacking odyssey.

What’s This Developer Contest All About?
Each week we announce a new category to encourage developers to try Twilio for different use cases, industries, and integrations. As a language-agnostic platform for cloud communications, we want to see developers from all backgrounds find success and solve problems with Twilio. To fire your imagination and reward your efforts, we’ve run this developer contest for over a year.
How To Get Involved
Submissions to the contest can be submitted here. If you need any help or want to bounce ideas off other Twilio developers, please join us on our forums or drop a note to help@twilio.com.
