The Qualcomm Innovators Development Kit (QIDK) aims to enable developers to build, test, and scale applications—from on-device AI to low-level system exploration—on Snapdragon® mobile platforms. The kit offers hardware and software components, along with customer support. Students, academic researchers and developers can now purchase a hardware platform from Qualcomm Technologies Inc. to build prototypes for a variety of applications ranging from on-device AI to writing device drivers to learning about the internals of modern mobile processors that drive the flagship smartphones.

 

Built on the latest premium Snapdragon system-on-chip (SoC), QIDK provides access to essential features, functions, and performance that leading device manufacturers rely on, and which are now available to the developer community as well.


Additionally, QIDK helps developers easily deploy their prototyped applications at scale on a variety of Snapdragon system-on-chip powered smartphones without incremental effort. If you wish to learn more, please visit the Tutorials page, or sign up for the “AI on Qualcomm Innovators Development Kit (QIDK)” course on Qualcomm Academy.

If you work at a university or research institution and would like to request a development platform, please fill out this form, and we will get back to you.
