Hackers taking part in the BR41N.IO hackathon at the AEC in Linz will be given a “simple” task: establishing a brain-to-computer connection within a 24-hour period. Over 100 participants are expected to take part in the competition. The challenge is open to any and all computer scientists interested in robotics, machine learning or other corresponding topics.

JKU Rector Meinhard Lukas is a member of the panel of experts that will select the winner.
