Last weekend we had the honour of holding a collaborative student #hackathon alongside @BoschGlobal with a focus on the future of mobility! 🚗⚡

Here's a recap thread of what happened! 🧵👇

Firstly, all students were given a presentation on the evolution of #Web3 technology by @pbusch42 with an end focus on #AI Agents, Blockchain, and Data Oracles. 👨‍💻

This ensured all students were caught up with the importance of the technology and its real-world application! 🌐

Then, the students were informed of what the challenges of the #hackathon would be! 👀

This included 3 key parts:
➡ A Driving Performance Challenge
➡ An Agent Integration Challenge
➡ A Pitch & Demo of Solutions

Essentially, the first challenge the students needed to complete was:
✅ Write code to get a car to drive #autonomously
✅ Test code in a simulation environment (CARLA)
✅ Finalize the test with Bosch's 1:10 EV in the Ecosystem Demonstrator

The second challenge focused on the Microagents involved:
✅Integrate the agent with the car
✅Car agent informs the car it needs charging ✅Agent suggests finding the most economical route
✅Car agent communicates with charging agents
✅Books a slot to charge
✅Update the route

You can check out some of the student presentation elements in this linked thread below to see how some teams used the simulated environment 👇

You can also see a video of one of the final results of all the pieces coming together to create an autonomous vehicle with agent interactions! 🤖👇

All-in-all, the #hackathon event was a great success, and we look forward to participating in creating similar events in the future! 👀

Thank you to everyone who participated, contributed and made this possible, and a big congratulations to all of the winners🙌
