Pre Hackathon Event

In preparation of the event, students will have the opportunity to participate in two “pre-hackathon events”. These events, are structured as both demos and engagement opportunities.

The demos will serve to provide a strong basis for effective gardening techniques in addition to the valuable role gardens play in a community.

The second pre-hackathon event will be focused on equipping students with the introductory knowledge and resources required to step their feet in the world of sensors, IoT devices and embedded systems.

Lastly, as this event is also partnered with the UWB Makerspace, the Makerspace staff will be available to assist students with learning how to use rapid prototyping techniques and tools which may be helpful during the hackathon event. Tool demos will also be available through the UWB Makerspace’s Youtube channel.
