One of the biggest challenges for restaurants? Food waste. Team Copenhagen Collective fights this with their project. For their prototype, they got some chicken meat and collected data by waiting how it changes in the sun. In addition to that, they searched for use cases, like detecting spoilage through odor or detecting food misplacement. Extending their idea on the whole food production chain is one of their next goals, yet even for the smaller case of restaurants it will create a lot of value like saving costs and food at the same time. The biggest challenge? In the end, it was choosing the right idea in the beginning. Most of the first day was spent on looking for an idea, but this one was the most valuable for them.

How can you visualize sports, like hockey? Team CoLiDAR used Rust, one of the most important aspects was to make their prototype as easy as possible. It can be set-up in nearly every environment, independent of any type and position of the beamer. For the team, making it real was one of the main parts of the project. They invite everybody to come to them and try it out.
