"Intelligent Internet of Things" Hackathon in November

From November 10 to 12, the "Intelligent Internet of Things Hackathon" - I²oTHack for short - 2023 will take place in the refectory of the university's Wilhelmshöher Allee 73 campus. Here, tinkering and programming enthusiasts can work on innovative, computer-based solutions to various problems, exchange ideas and try them out. The event is open to high school and university students as well as working professionals. Registration is still possible until November 2.

The Hackathon at the University of Kassel is organized with the support of numerous companies from the region and beyond by the Department of Intelligent Embedded Systems (Department of Electrical Engineering/Computer Science) under the direction of Prof. Dr. Bernhard Sick.

A "hackathon" is an event in which interdisciplinary talents of different ages and levels of knowledge work together to develop unusual and innovative solutions to various problems. These can be real-world problems, making people's lives easier, or just fun toys. In the case of I²oTHack 2023 at the University of Kassel, the focus is on problems that can be solved with computers and in which "smart" devices connected via the Internet can play a role.

For one weekend, small teams work on self-selected or proposed tasks, which are presented to everyone at the end. Equipment and resources, as well as meals and drinks, are provided by the organizers.

The I²oTHack is an event where programming enthusiasts, whether high school or university students or professionals, work together on exciting smart IoT projects. Here, everyone will have the unique opportunity to bring new ideas to life and use resources such as computers, Raspberry Pis, VR glasses and much more.

The event begins at 5 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 10, and ends at 6 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 12. It will take place at the engineering school in Wilhelmshöher Allee 71-73. To secure a place at the I²oTHack, registration is required via the website by November 2.
