RTEMS Project

Design a new logo

This task involves designing a new logo for RTEMS.

You can see current / previous versions of the RTEMS logo for perspective (see https://www.rtems.org/logo_list) but you should design something completely different. Be creative and make it aesthetically associated with RTEMS in some manner! You must be able to explain how your design relates to RTEMS.

Search the web for design inspiration before working on this, but you must submit a completely original design of your own creation that does not use 3rd party images from the web. If you create a design similar to something you found on the web, it is considered a derivative work and you should give proper attribution (i.e., credit) to that author by name with a link to their work. Failure to give credit is plagiarism and can be grounds for dismissal from GCI. When in doubt, design something unique. ;)

Logo design tips are in abundance around the web such as these 65 tips and these 7 tips.

Submit a preview of your design in PNG format as well as your original artwork files ideally in vector format (e.g., PSD, XCF, SVG, AI, etc).

Familiarity with a graphics design package like Gimp, Photoshop, Inkscape, or Illustrator are useful for completing this task. Gimp and Inkscape are open source (and free).

If you would like credit, please provide your name and join our mailing list to hear if we use your logo design.
