Hackster's second Build2Gether innovation challenge is underway! The challenge targets assistive technologies for people with disabilities – including enabling indoor and outdoor activities for people with visual impairments, plus two categories for people with mobility impairments ("Home & Tools" and "Sports & Hobbies").
Let's dig into the Superbox, a curated collection of hardware from our partners that's helping 200 participants build their projects. Join our other contests (hackster.io/contests) and you could win the hardware to build your dreams!
Thanks to our contest hardware co-sponsors: Arm, Blues, Nordic Semiconductor, Seeed Studio, M5Stack, PCBWay, and DFRobot.

![🟧 Nordic Thingy:91 X // Tech Highlight with MoonMakers [English]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/e0rPq_eSDZM/mqdefault.jpg "🟧 Nordic Thingy:91 X // Tech Highlight with MoonMakers [English]
Hackster PRO Ana Camila Luna Lopez, co-founder of MoonMakers, give us a rundown of all the cool features of Nordic Semiconductors Thingy:91 X.
The Thingy:91 X is a battery-operated prototyping platform for cellular IoT based on the nRF9151 system-in-package (SiP) supporting LTE-M, NB-IoT, GNSS and NR+, and certified for global operation. It is an ideal device for rapidly developing any cellular IoT concept, and is especially suited for asset tracking applications due to its multiple location tracking methods in conjunction with nRF Cloud Location Services. The Thingy:91 X is also equipped with a series of on-board sensors that monitor environmental conditions and movement.
