We created a WiFi controlled iPad mount meant to assist the sight impaired find lost items, and we used the <a href=\"https:\/\/digilent.com\/blog\/wf32\">WF32<\/a>\u00a0WiFi capable PIC32 microcontroller. At long last, I&#8217;m sure you are dying to know the results of the poster competition; our team got second place!
