From the highlighted projects can be consulted on the website of Android Experiments. There are general assumptions which guided the Google organizing this type of competition:
 
 

Android was created as an open and flexible platform, giving people more on the way, meet up, designing and creating. (…) We are working on documenting the creative experiments Open Source, so that everyone can sobaczyć how they are done, inspire and create something of their own.

Google awarded three projects which full presentation we can see in a few days. The first of these autonomous vehicle, the “brain” has become a Nexus 5x. Thanks plate ioio he is able to autonomously track specific objects (distinguishing feature is the color), for example. Green ball.

Another winner was Mike Roelens, the creator of the game Hungermoji, which supports using … Android notifications. The player with gestures rejects further notice, to form ate the ones that should. Hungermoji can be found in Google Play
