We organize such a virtual hackathon the second time to discover innovative digital and hardware ideas for something as fundamental to human beings as sex. Last year we faced a pandemic when people were socially and physically separated. As the Covid-19 pandemic lasts, we, even more, need to find new and innovative solutions in the reproductive health and sexuality area. Our bodies, our feelings, our relationships… there's so much room for improvement! A diverse range of voices and ideas are urgently needed to find new and innovative ways to use technology to deliver sex education, products and services for sexual health and wellness, assault reporting and privacy.

Social Distancing Brings New Challenges, Opportunities, and Future Trends of Emerging AR People with impaired hearing begin to navigate a world already forcefully reshaped by the pandemic. For the deaf, new social distancing guidelines, like staying six feet from others and wearing a mask, can present particular challenges, making everyday tasks more complicated and bringing increased stress and anxiety. Many deaf people rely on visual cues like the movement of another person’s lips. Masks that cover the mouth prevent them from effectively communicating. Bridging Gaps: Automatic captioning technology like Live Caption, Google’s automatic captioning system and other Speech-to-text processing technologies can be used merged with AR, in order to give you real-time transcriptions. The concept of merged reality, integrated with automatic captioning technology, simply means that the device is integrated with the hardware to allow it to be used as a real-time application (RTA) The technology will capture and automatically caption spoken audio on your device. We must reimagine our world to consider this New Challenges. This forum highlights the fact that simple enhancements, through AR and computer interfaces could benefit those with disabilities, potentially transforming their worlds Lets start a cooperative hackathon instead of the usual competitive event The objective: Take part in the race to implemente benefits to put the person before the sensory disabilities limitations The first prize: Increase and share knolowledge Ready for Takeoff 🚀

Fire seasons are running longer, stronger, hotter. The trend is not going away. More firefighting equipment are, of course, needed. With the situation seemingly getting worse and not better, how can we turn a losing battle on its head? One way is to apply some of our biggest tech innovations. We decided to run a crowdsourcing effort. Big data is already being used to understand and predict wildfire spread, but how can some of the other big technology trends potentially help? Let's start a Cooperative work to accomplish shared goals, gathering and collaborating on innovation ideas. To create discussion to disseminate the adoption of new breakthrough technology. In a process of looking at forest fire in a new and unorthodox way, to provide new solutions. The forestfirehub.com Hackathon Challenge is a Virtual Collaboration open to anyone with innovative concepts willing to revolutionise the current state of forest fire fighting. An evaluation of mathematical models using Machine Learning.Creating virtual environments to modeling and problem solving.
