Digility Hackathon
Johannes lead the first DIGILITY hackathon on Day 1 of the event. The powerhouse team leading the event included main sponsor Audi, and supporting partners: HTC Vive, Vectorform, Unity, and Salt and Pepper. The hackathon brought together interdisciplinary teams who worked together for 32-dedicated hours to find solutions for collaborative work in VR.
The challenge was derived from automotive use cases including:
- Engineers collaborating on virtual automotive designs
- The use of virtual tools to test designs and configurations, and
- The challenges of teaching and learning in shared virtual spaces or with virtual objects.
