I haven't had much of a chance to look through most of these but the one I'm most interested in and the one which stood out from the submitters is Xoodyak, created by the winners of of the SHA-3 competition.

It's a sponge construction like SHA-3 but the "volume" is 384-bits which is designed to fit inside 12-32-bit registers which is now more common for Cortex-M embedded microcontrollers.

It's interesting that none of the finalists for this US standard appear to be from US authors?
