The results of the very first TechCrunch Hardware Battlefield at this year’s CES are in: CubeSensors is taking home the winning trophy and the giant $50,000 check!

After being selected as one of the four finalists, our CEO Aleš got the chance to present again in front Bre Pettis, Yves Béhar, Matt Turck, Jen McCabe and the TechCrunch team. We are very thankful for their insightful and valuable feedback! And we’d also like to congratulate the other finalists, Owlet Baby Care, Atlas Wearables and Blaze, who all did an excellent job in the final round. It was an honor to share the stage with such great teams.

To hear more about what it was like to participate in the Hardware Battlefield, check out the interview with our winning team on TechCrunch. We can’t wait to welcome Aleš, Marko and the metal man trophy back home in the next days and to continue making and shipping your Cubes.

It’s been really busy at CubeSensors HQ lately! Most of us are working day and night to assemble and thoroughly test all the pre-ordered Cubes, and ship them to your homes in the coming weeks. We did however send Aleš, our CEO, and Marko, our CTO to Las Vegas for a few days to announce the shipping of CubeSensors as part of the TechCrunch Hardware Battlefield competition. We’re honored to be one of the 14 startups presenting at this year’s inaugural Battlefield at CES, the biggest consumer electronics show in the world.

You can watch the interview with Aleš and Marko and their pitch in front of TechCrunch Senior Editor Matt Burns and Battlefield judges Rob Coneybeer of Shasta Ventures, Craig Dalton of DODOcase, and Joey Grover of Livio Radio. Our Cubes impressed the judges with their elegant design, and we go a lot of great questions about CubeSensors, the upcoming API and more. See for yourself on TechCrunch!

The Cubes were also introduced to TechCrunch’s readers after the pitch. If you haven’t heard about CubeSensors before, feel free to explore our website and send us questions via Twitter, Facebook or email. We also have a freshly updated press page if you’d like to write about our Cubes.

At the moment, we have our hands full with the production of the very first batch of CubeSensors. But we still wanted to take a minute and a few of the already assembled Cubes to wish you happy holidays.

May your holiday season be filled with a warm glow and good air!
