EUROPE EMBODIED Hackathon - 48h Hardware Challenge
EUROPE EMBODIED Hackathon — 48h Hardware Challenge
Build hands-on with real hardware. Pitch on the main stage. Part of Europe Embodied — Robotics Week Munich 2026.
48 hours. Real robots. Munich's biggest stage.
The EE26 Hackathon is the hands-on hardware challenge at the heart of Europe Embodied - Robotics Week Munich 2026. This is not a simulation hackathon. This is not a slide deck competition. You will get your hands on real hardware - humanoid robots, industrial platforms, construction setups - and you will have 48 hours to build something that actually works.
120 participants. 3-4 People in a Team. 3 hardware tracks. Winners pitch on the Main Stage in the Final EE'26 Summit.
You do not need to be a robotics expert to apply. If you are into software, ML, engineering, or just love building things and work well in a team under pressure, you are exactly who we are looking for.
