Create tech solutions for social change on Hackaday World Create Day, our worldwide brainstorming session for the 2016 Hackaday Prize design concept challenge! Join a team from Bakersfield, California, and submit ideas for projects that solve problems in categories from citizen science to assistive technologies, or anything else that leverages your hardware, coding, scientific, design and mechanical skills.

  • The space will be opening at 5:00 PM. We'll start with a casual meet and greet and refreshments. A tour of the space will be given to newcomers.
  • At 5:30 PM, we'll go over the challenge concept and rules and start brainstorming ideas. We can form smaller teams if we have multiple ideas.
  • By 6:30 PM, we should be well into the swing of things!
  • 7:30 PM Share ideas in a round of lightning pitches and get feedback from the others.
  • 8:00 PM Submit your project ideas to the Hackaday Prize design challenge following the guidelines at https://hackaday.io/prize/details#one.
