Each year, EDN's Innovation Awards honor outstanding engineering professionals and products. Our Innovator of the Year award recognizes an electronics engineer or engineering team for innovation in product design or technical leadership. The Innovation of the Year awards recognize unique, state-of-the-art electronics products in several categories. This year was no different. The ballots are in, your peers have spoken, and the winners have been revealed.

As usual, the festivities took place in conjunction with the Embedded Systems Conference in San Jose, CA, on April 3. The gala featured a keynote address by August Capital venture capitalist Andy Rappaport, a gourmet menu, and, of course, the opening of the envelopes and unveiling of the winners. To top it all off, EDN will donate a portion of the proceeds from the nominations and the awards event to the engineering college or university of the Innovator of the Year's choice.
