「 WHAT IS THE DEAUTO HACKATHON
DeAuto Hackathon is a decentralized automotive design hackathon, aiming to design an L7e-car. We received hundreds of applications from over 10 countries, and gathered over 30 participants in the metaverse. The winning design will be produced in the real world in the PIX factory.
With proper management and operation, an open project can achieve much greater success than a closed project.
Personal Wheeled Robot
L7e car
Participants from design, algorithm, engineering and other interdisciplinary fields will team up and collaborate in the Metaverse. The hackathon will last for 31 days during which members will design a vehicle symbolizing the future and featuring the present. “Personal wheeled robot” is the endowed name.
When car is no longer a car, but an electronic consumer product like digital building blocks, urban hackers can create personal brand labels and convey emotions through parametric exterior and custom modular interiors, as well as digital manufacturing processes.
「 DIVE INTO THE METAVERSE
VR Collaboration
Under the global pandemic, DeAuto Hackathon will go for online collaboration. PIX will provide each selected participant with a free VR device and participants will collaborate online through the VR vehicle design tools such as Gravity Sketch. The approach is adopted to reduce travel expenses and carbon footprint.
