Welcome to LYNX & Algovera’s very first joint hackathon.

What is LYNX?

LYNX aims to combine data from multiple wearables (including traditional trackers; biosensors; and neurotech) to give users advanced insights into individual health, wellbeing and performance. Full privacy and ownership of data will be enabled through the use of decentralised technologies.

What is Algovera?

Algovera is a collective of people working to facilitate and accelerate the development of decentralised AI products.

Hack Information

• This hack is aimed towards anyone interested in using data science, data analysis, data engineering, and AI to analyse biometric data.
• We will be analysing data collected from an EEG device (don’t worry if you’re not sure what it is! Here is a link).
• Python is recommended for analysis (but if you want to use a language you are more comfortable with and it is compatible with the libraries then feel free).
• Before the hack begins a document outlining Hack Criteria will be shared including submission requirements.
• Please note this hack is open source and therefore all code should be licensed under a permissive license such as MIT or Apache-2 (see Terms & Conditions for more details).
• For any questions about the hack please ask in #🧠-neuroscience channel (under projects) in the Algovera Discord.
