Gemtec Hackathon

Techies and designers in and around Dayton, Ohio! Launch Dayton invites you to sign up to take part in the Gemtec Hackathon during Launch Dayton Startup Week!. From 4 pm Monday until noon Thursday, you'll be challenged to tackle a real-world IoT problem for one of Dayton's top companies!

These companies use food preparation equipment made by the Henny Penny manufacturing firm. These machines are IoT capable and collect a wealth of valuable data ranging from controller id and oil temperature to error codes and element currents. You'll be tasked with designing and prototyping a tool with a web-based front end that allows users to sort, filter, and analyze the data. Come with a team, or join one at the event — prototype your solution in three days and pitch it to a jury of Henny Penny leaders for your shot at $10K to further develop your solution.
