Teams - Hack & Build 2024

This year, 12 teams participated in the hackathon, with a wide range of projects and ideas.

Team 1

A wheeled robotic dog named Blind that maps its environment using a camera and localization software.

Team 2

A fall detection robot that uses ultrasonic sensors to alert when someone falls.

Team 3

A wearable device that converts speech to Braille using vibrations.

Team 4

A self-balancing reaction wheel that uses an expandable table mechanism for control.

Team 5

A robotic hand that opens and closes based on muscle sensor input.

Team 6

A Strandbeest-style walking robot with fully 3D-printed joints and WASD controls.

Team 8

An eyeball robot that tracks people and syncs LED flashes to nearby music.

Team 9

A hand-controlled theremin with multiple sound modes using an ultrasonic sensor.

Team 10

A dancing tongue controlled by hand gestures and synced to music.

Team 11

A rotating 3D scanner that captures images to build digital models.

Team 12
