Description

English
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!

Francais
Cet hiver, FIXME organise un weekend rempli de hacking en exploration par rapport aux "Internet des Objets". Il semble que ces jours-ci l'IoT soit le dernier buzzwork qui explose dans les médias. Par contre, étant hackeurs nous avons déjà passé des années en jouant avec des trucs connectés, des LEDs, des capteurs, des modules sans fil ou le "big data". Nous sommes dans les premières lignes avec pleins ds nouvelles technologies et on a le pouvoir de d'influencer notre futur. Venez nombreux rejoindre les hackeurs de notre communauté pour un weekend merveilleux, où nous allons jouer avec des découpeurs laser et des sondes de temperature, des modules blueooth,sur des Raspberry Pi's, et bien plus. Construit une LED clignotante sans fil, ou construit une fusée connectée - il n'y a pas de restrictions jusqu'où ton imagination peut t'ammener !
