Back in October, Google announced an Android Developer Challenge to look for apps that take advantage of machine learning. As part of the 11 Weeks of Android, the 10 winners were revealed today.
Android Developer Challenges date back to the first SDK launch with Google bringing it back in light of emerging technologies like 5G, foldables, and ML. Developers were invited to submit a concept and the company selected 10 projects to guide.
This included an “all-expenses paid, working session with a panel of experts” in Mountain View, as well as Google Play promotion. The winners range from around the world and fit Google’s theme of “helpful innovation.”

Meanwhile, Google outlined this week’s Machine Learning sessions. Starting on Tuesday, the Android team will detail the overhauled ML Kit — touting developer usability and CameraX support improvements. This will be followed by custom models for when a “prepackaged SDK doesn’t quite satisfy your need.” The two days will feature codelabs, with Google closing on ML design.
