hackathon
The second annual UofT Hacks wrapped up earlier this week in Toronto. The theme of this year's hack was Social Benefit which challenged teams to use tech to for the betterment of mankind and boy did they deliver. The 3-day event saw 500 participants team up and submit 115 hacks using both software and hardware to do some good.
Over 100 hackers gathered at the historic Maple Leaf Gardens this weekend to hack sports using the latest in wearable tech at Canada’s first wearable tech hackathon for sports, SportsHack Weekend. Created in partnership by We Are Wearables, IBM and Ryerson, the hackathon saw virtual reality, gesture, LED and brain-sensing devices be used to change the game of sports from all angles from bettering the performance of the player to increasing the fan experience.
