What ?

Join us for a workshop and a hacking competition dedicated to Intel® Perceptual Computing SDK, work with other talented developers and advance the world of computing.

You can bring a fresh new idea or existing apps and code to the hackathon, but keep in mind that your prototype will be judged only on what you've built during the hack.

In order to help you develop great prototypes, we're organizing a workshop. This is designed to get you started with the technology, answer your questions and help you prepare for the hackathon. If you have an idea for a great app, bring it to the workshop - we'll review and help you submit it to the ongoing Perceptual Computing Challenge for a chance to win $100k. Deadline for submitting to the Challenge ends June 17th, so this is your chance to get the skills and training you need to win.
