This VR Hackathon is inviting all developers, designers, and visual/graphics/sound artists to build apps and VR experiences for the VR Passport campaign, a campaign to make a positive impact on others' lives. There will be mentors present at the event with experience on different aspects of VR development during the two workshops and the hackathon. You will have access to the WearHacks hardware library and will be able to use Project Tango's Development kit for your project. There will be two workshops organized prior to the hackathon for those of you who do not have a lot of experience with VR platforms. You will get familiar with Project Tango tablet dev kit and other wearables/VR/IoT devices. Anyone is welcome to participate, but as the event can only support a limited number of participants, there is an application process dependent on some criteria including: previous experience with developing on VR platforms, review of previous work, project proposal, and general team makeup (engineers, designers, artists).
