Hitachi Communication Technologies America, Inc. (Hitachi CTA) today announced that for the second year, Hitachi is a sponsor of the Georgia Institute of Technology's 2011-2012 Convergence Innovation Competition (CIC). The CIC is a highly successful program for companies seeking short-term innovation results. The sponsorship supports student project categories ranging from mobile augmented reality to health IT. The CIC, now in its sixth year, features Georgia Tech students of all majors and levels of study. After forming teams and developing a viable business case, the students build commercially viable end-to-end prototypes and present live demos of applications, devices, media or services. Industry partners such as Hitachi provide guidance throughout the process. At the end of the semester, a panel of judges from academia and industry review the presentations and rank the best in each category. The 2011-12 CIC announced categories include mobile augmented reality, machine-to-machine, societal impact, health IT and campus community.
