Hackathon meets Phoenix Contact #futurevalleyOWL: Program your own Buildingbot
What will the building of tomorrow look like? That's what the Phoenix Contact Hackathon is all about from May 6 to May 8, 2022. Over the course of three days, there will be interesting challenges that you can solve in teams or on your own. TH OWL students are invited to participate.
The challenge focuses on the development of a building bot for one of the most digital buildings in Germany. 30,000 data points are available to participants to make the building of tomorrow more efficient. TH OWL students can participate in the hackathon. "The main thing is that participants are enthusiastic. In addition to knowledge about AI, creative thinking and good ideas are also required," explains Dr. Lukasz Wisniewski, board member at the Institute Industrial IT (inIT) at TH OWL and co-founder of AICommunityOWL.
The first three winning teams will not only receive prize money, they will also be invited to the Hannover Messe on May 31, 2022.
