Come and take on other schools and students from different countries in a unique competition: a 30-hour technology marathon, known as a “hackathon”!

Two days before Laval Virtual, 10 teams (led by a mentor of their choice) challenge each other at the Laval Virtual Center. The goal? Each team is required to develop a 3D application in real time on a given subject. Participants will be given access to expert VR/AR advice and all the equipment they need.

At the end of the 30-hour hackathon, the winner wins the right to present its solution at Laval Virtual.
