Description

This winter, come join us at FIXME for a fun weekend full of hacking and exploring everything that is IoT. It seems that the Internet of Things is the latest new buzzword that's exploding in the mainstream media. However, as hackers, we've already been tinkering for a number of years with connected devices, LEDs, sensors, wireless modules, and "big data". We are at the forefront of many new technologies, and we have the power to decide how the future will look like. Come join fellow hackers from the local community for a wonderful weekend hackathon focusing on playing with everything from laser cutters to temperature sensors, Bluetooth modules and Raspberry Pi's. Build a wireless blinking light or build a connected rocket ship - there are no restrictions on where your imagination can take you!
