Team Monash wins the 2014 Telstra M2M Team Challenge

Team Monash, an interdisciplinary team composed of 11 students from the Faculty of Art Design and Architecture, Faculty of Engineering and Faculty of IT, has won Telstra's 2014 Machine-2-Machine (M2M) University Challenge.

M2M is an exciting and rapidly growing area of telecommunications that is transforming industries. For the challenge, Monash students used a Raspberry Pi computer along with a BigPond 4G broadband dongle to create an innovative application for public transport users that allows a commuter to accurately predict their likelihood of getting a seat on a particular train.

The prize includes a grant from Telstra of $10,000 as well as consultancy services to help further develop the winning innovation.
