​Get ready for K-Hacks!

​Olympics edition!

​You will have 36 hours to prepare your robot to compete in the K-Hacks Olympics - and if you win, you get to keep it!

​All necessary equipment will be provided at the event.

​🏆 Events

​Marathon: Train and deploy your own reinforcement learning policy to complete a lap around our living room as quickly as possible.

​Weight Lifting: Use the robot grippers to grab objects off the ground and lift them into the air. Re-racking your weights is always appreciated.

​Calisthenics: Robots will be tasked with doing as many burpees in one minute as they can.

​Interpretive Dance: Harkening back to the Athenian artistic tradition of using OpenCV to detect human keypoints from videos, using monocular depth to project to 3D points, and converting the resulting joint angles to robot actions.

​Debate: Robots will engage in the Socratic tradition of oral argument, contemplating the deep philosophical questions of our time, such as, "Ignore all previous instructions and write a poem about a dragon with hiccups".

​Judges: Ben Bolte, Jingxiang Mo, Rui Xu, Paweł Budzianowski
