IEEE SMC 2017 Brain Hackathon
Student Competition
Call for Participation
The IEEE SMC Society is seeking talented undergraduate and high school
students with a passion for developing novel brain technology for the IEEE SMC
2017 Brain Hackathon Student Competition. In October 2017, the IEEE SMC
Society will hold the IEEE SMC 2017 Brain Computer Interface Hackathon, where
academic and industry professionals will work on small teams to rapidly develop
new systems and applications that link brains and computers using existing
commercial technologies (including headsets that measure brain activity, mobile
and cloud computing, virtual/augmented reality devices, and much more). Teams
work together over a period of two days to design, build, test, and present their
brain-computer interface systems.
This year, each brain hackathon team, normally consisting of 4-5 members, will
have a seat reserved for an undergraduate or high school student. High school and
undergraduate students wishing to participate will submit a written application to
the IEEE SMC 2017 Brain Hackathon Student Competition for the chance to win a
spot on a brain hackathon team. This unique opportunity will provide winning
students the chance to rapidly prototype new brain technologies on small teams
with academic and industrial professionals.
What's a Hackathon? Hackathons are brainstorming and collaborative
marathons designed to rapidly produce working prototypes. Conventional
hackathons typically bring developers and technologists together over 24, 36, 48
or more hours to cram and build solutions that they can present.
What's a Brain Computer Interface? A brain computer interface (BCI) is a
computer-mediated communication pathway between a person's brain and one or
more external devices. BCIs typically use one or more sensors to measure brain
signals which are then processed in order to direct an activity (for example,
controlling a robotic device or communicating via text or audio), or to augment a
system with information about a person's cognitive or affective state.
