Overview

The Eclipse IoT working group will hold a hackathon (Hacker Space, …) during EclipseCon 2022.

The idea is to bring a working setup to the conference, and guide people through understanding, exploring, and enhancing it during the hackathon sessions.

Working group members are invited to participate in this effort. Please feel free to come up with ideas, enhancing the following base architecture with your content.

People will sign up for the hackathon before the conference through the ticket system.

Red Hat

  • We provide the base architecture
    • ~5 Intel NUCs as edge gateways (can bring more, let us know)
    • ~50 Microbit microcontrollers as sensor devices
    • 1 OpenShift instance for running cloud workload
    • Some “game” which will leverage this infrastructure to show how to bring data from the sensors on the people’s mobile phones.
  • Of course we are willing to support and integrate your ideas into this architecture. Please reach out and work with us on this.
