Make cool IOT things We are still looking for the best date, please [https://framadate.org/A7HGbcop4d9h1axc tell us which ones suit you best].  If you know of any '''sponsors''' or '''partners''' who may be interested in helping us out, please contact sasha (at) fixme (dot) ch. == 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! === Details ==='''Dates:''' unconfirmed, [https://framadate.org/A7HGbcop4d9h1axc see here] '''Location:''' FIXME Hackerspace, Ch. de Closel 5, Renens '''Price:''' still unset, we are trying to make this event free for everyone, but it depends on our sponsors '''Food:''' status unknown == Schedule ==The schedule is still being planned and not final. === Saturday ==='''13:00''' - Doors open source hardwareand registration begins '''14:00''' - Introduction to event '''14:15''' - Keynote talk '''15:00''' - Second talk '''15:45''' - Hackathon overview '''16:00''' - Hackathon starts'''19:00''' - Dinner === Sunday ==='''08:00''' - Breakfast '''09:00''' - Talk 1 '''10:00''' - Talk 2 '''11:00''' - Talk 3 '''12:00''' - Lunch '''16:00''' - Hackathon end, submission deadline '''16-17''' - Judges will evaluate the projects '''17:00''' - Award and closing ceremony '''18:00''' - End of event == Organisation ===== Deadlines ==='''1st December''' - Settle on a date === Participants ===[[User: Sasha]] - event coordinator === Speakers === === Sponsors ===Potential sponsors to contact:* Zigobot* Intel* Microsoft* Swisscom* IBM* ''Your suggestions here'' == Resources ===== Media ===PDF poster: [[File:IoT Poster.pdf]] Background graphic highres: [[media:IoT-Weekend-Hackathon-highres.png]] lowres: [[media:IoT-Weekend-Hackathon-lowres.png]] '''Originals''' Master PSD of poster: [[File:IoT Poster.psd]] Original background graphic: [[File:IoT background.psd]] === Links ===Holidays in Vaud [http://www.vd.ch/themes/formation/jours-feries-et-vacances-scolaires/2015/ 2015] and [http://www.vd.ch/themes/formation/jours-feries-et-vacances-scolaires/2016/ 2016] [https://hackathon.guide/ Hackathon guide] [http://www.hackzurich.com/ HackZurich] - Europe's biggest and best organised hackathon == See also ==Here are some previous events that FIXME organised or participated in: [[Mitch Altman soldering workshop]] [[ElectroJam1|ElectroJam]] [[Leman make]] [[Cryptoparty2|Cryptoparty]] [[5th Anniversary]]
