Cursor Robotics Hackathon Almaty
βπ€ Cursor Physical AI Hackathon Almaty
βThe next wave of AI won't live in chat windowsβit will live in the physical world.
βJoin us for a 6-hour hackathon exploring the future of Physical AI, Robotics, World Models, and Embodied Intelligence. Whether you're an AI engineer, software developer, roboticist, student, or simply curious about the technologies powering autonomous machines, this is your chance to build alongside others at the frontier.
βWorking in teams of 1β4 people, you'll spend the day designing and building projects that help machines perceive, understand, predict, and interact with the real world. From robotics applications and world models to simulation tools, autonomous agents, and entirely new ideas, what you build is up to you.
βThroughout the event you'll have access to cutting-edge developer tools, APIs, datasets, and mentorship from engineers and startups building the next generation of Physical AI.
βπ Challenge Tracks
βChoose a trackβor create something entirely your own.
βOpen Innovation
βBuild any project related to Physical AI or Robotics. Whether it's a new robotics application, AI developer tool, simulation platform, autonomous workflow, or something we've never seen before, this track is open to any ambitious idea.
βπ World Models
βExplore how AI can understand and predict the physical world. Build applications that use world models for planning, prediction, spatial reasoning, navigation, decision-making, or entirely new use cases.
βπ€ Embodied AI
βCreate intelligent agents capable of perceiving, reasoning about, and interacting with physical environments using multimodal AI.
βπ Data & Simulation
βWork with real-world or simulated datasets to build better Physical AI systems. Projects might include synthetic data generation, evaluation pipelines, simulation environments, or new approaches to training intelligent agents.
βπ What You'll Have Access To
βParticipants will have access to technologies provided by our partners, including:
βAI models and APIs
βWorld models
βRobotics and simulation platforms
βDeveloper tools
βTechnical mentors
βπ Prizes
βπ AI Credits + π Exclusive merch + π° Cash prizes
βAdditional prizes from ecosystem partners will be announced soon.
βπ Food & Drinks
βRefreshments are provided throughout the event thanks to Cursor and our partners.
β
βNo robotics background is required. If you're excited about building with AI and learning new technologies, you'll fit right in.
