TTN Reading is running a hackathon-type event as part of the awesome Festival of Digital Disruption ( https://www.connecttvt.co.uk/festival-digital-disruption/ )

If you are interested in the Internet of Things, and fancy joining some like-minded people in seeing what you can produce in a few hours then this is the event for you!  

We've got a prototype "hotspot" sensor (see http://thingitude.com/hotspots-connecting-artists-audiences-and-venues/ ) which will be providing a live feed of IDs of mobile phones within its range.

The challenge is - how can you announce the entrance of a new person (ok mobile phone) walking into the room?

Ideas:

• Can you play their theme tune?  Simone wants the Darth Vader march when she enters the building!
• Can you send a drone to hover near the newcomer and greet them?
• Can you make that person appear in a replica of Grow in Minecraft?
• < bring your own idea >

No experience needed, just bring your laptop, your happy shoes and whatever kit you want to play with.  It's all about having fun and seeing what you can come up with on the day.

Look forward to seeing you!
