<P>The Hackathon will be held in downtown San Diego at CyberTECH's cybersecurity incubator and shared workspace, CyberHive, starting Saturday, Oct 29 and ending Sunday Oct 30 approximately 5pm.  See the full schedule below.</P>

<H2>Best Use of City of San Diego API's</H2>
<P>The hackathon theme is <STRONG>Smart Cities</STRONG>.  The City of San Diego will be showcasing their datasets <SPAN>and asking you to build IoT or mobile app solutions that use the datasets</SPAN>.  Smart Cities use technology to better serve their citizens.</P>
<P>One scenario to consider are apps that address the City’s Climate Action Plan.  Read more about this plan at <A HREF="https://www.sandiego.gov/planning/genplan/cap" TARGET="_blank" TITLE="Climate Action Plan" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.sandiego.gov/planning/genplan/cap</A>.  Other Smart Cities topics include First Responders, Public Health, Public Safety, Security, Traffic and Transportation, or related areas.  See the City's datasets for more ideas.</P>

<H2>Best Use of Mechatronics</H2>
<P>Does your app include robotics or other engineering fields?  We invite developers to embrace mechatronics, the art of mixing mechanical engineering (e.g. robotics) with electronics and wireless connectivity. Use your technical prowess and innovative know-how to build IoT solutions that cross multiple subfields of engineering for smart cities, healthcare, sports, sustainability, or home.  </P>
<P>The best mechatronics app is eligible for the opportunity to be selected for the AT&T Hackathon Invitational.  Select Invitational finalists will be flown to Las Vegas for the 2017 AT&T Summit conference. Three finalists get to pitch live on stage at the conference for a chance to win $20,000!</P>
