"This is your opportunity to create innovative video applications that transform the way public venues function."
Imagine being able to monitor crowd flows, track foot traffic, or generate real-time heatmaps to help manage spaces like concert halls, stadiums, and event venues with cutting-edge precision. The Nx Video Solutions Hackathon challenges developers to build smart, AI-driven applications using the Nx Toolkit and the powerful Nx AI Manager.
Whether you’re focused on enhancing security, optimizing venue layouts, or improving overall user experience, your ideas could pave the way for innovative solutions that are both functional and scalable. This hackathon is more than just a competition—it’s a chance to leverage open-source tools and AI to create real-world applications with significant market potential.
Important:
This hackathon has two phases:
Join us and showcase how technology can transform the way we understand and manage public spaces!
Nx Venue Innovation Hackathon invites developers to innovate using AI and video management tools to solve challenges faced in high-traffic venues.
Participants are encouraged to explore the following venue-related themes, considering how technology can transform venue management, enhance safety, improve visitor experience, and promote sustainability. With these goals in mind, you are invited to creatively develop impactful applications designed for real-world implementation.
Furthermore, we encourage you to explore the capabilities of Nx Developer Toolkit, contribute enhancements, and surprise us with innovative video-based applications that drive business value.
Design AI-driven applications to detect unusual crowd behavior or emergencies in real-time, providing alerts to enhance venue safety. (For example, smoke or fire appearing, or a pattern of people suddenly dispersing in various directions.)
Leverage video analytics and AI to capture and analyze audience demographics, such as age groups, genders, and nationalities, to tailor venue services and improve operational strategies. (For example, identifying the percentage of male and female visitors or the predominant age group attending a concert to adjust seating arrangements or marketing content.)
Analyze visitor behavior and preferences to gather actionable insights that improve services and enhance marketing strategies. (For example, tracking table occupancy in a restaurant.)
Build systems to analyze and visualize crowd movement patterns, assisting in the identification of bottlenecks and improving visitor navigation. (For example, displaying patterns through heatmap analysis.)
Streamline venue access processes with video feeds to authenticate guest entry and manage ticket validity. (For example, people counting in venues)
Monitor and optimize connections between venues and transportation hubs to ensure smooth transitions for attendees. (For example, calculate the estimated time needed for all attendees to enter a venue by analyzing the flow rate of people arriving from the nearest train station)
Let your imagination run wild and think outside the box. If you have a unique, bold idea for improving venue experiences or operations, make it happen.
