The official date for the online hackathon will be on 24-26 Sept 2021 and the deadline for participation applications is on 8 Sept.

Participants in this DeepHack are challenged to develop Edge AI-powered sensors and computer vision solutions to aid individuals or groups of people to stay safe and healthy. Potential solution domains include fall monitoring, pedestrian/bicyclist safety, monitoring physical distance and mask-wearing, physical worker safety, fitness, and posture tracking - and other health and safety problems that can be addressed by utilizing Edge AI for IoT.

The first series is a part of a publicly financed program over 3 years - three hackathons, one each year. The program is supported by the Transatlantic Program of the Federal Republic of Germany and funded by the European Recovery Program (ERP) of the Federal Ministry of Economics and Energy (BMWi).
