<p>Hi again everyone,</p>
<p>IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) is holding their annual Hackathon this weekend. Since the interests of IEEE overlap with Robotics to some extent, they asked me to share the info with you. They are still looking for 3 more teams. If you don't have a team, you can sign up and will be paired with one at the start of the event. The original text is below. The sign-ups will close tomorrow night at 9 (at their GBM), which also means that at least one member of your team would have to go to their meeting in P120. E-mail any questions that you have to <a href="mailto:ieee@stevens.edu">ieee@stevens.edu</a>.</p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
<p>Matt Lagarenne</p>

<p><span class="m_1507516568665660168gmail-im"><span class="m_1507516568665660168gmail-im">IEEE is hosting our second annual hackathon this weekend from Nov, 19th at 10 am to Nov 21st at 9 pm. The theme of the event is mystery boxes, where each team will randomly be assigned a box that contains between three and four mystery items that have to be used in the final design. The final products will be judged by professors and prizes will be given to the first place team.</span></span></p>

<div>Our hackathon is a very beginner friendly event, and we tailor it to help those with little to no experience learn something new. We will be hosting several workshops throughout the event covering both hardware and software knowledge, tips, and tricks and doing a small Raspberry Pi head start Nov 16th at 9pm in Pierce 120.</div>

<div>If anyone is interested they can signup using this link <a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10Nz-yiE-yhOOqvocyBPhdGU3kn5LlmINCtlbcixDtxI/edit#gid=0" target="_blank">here</a>, which is a google sheet with all relevant information. To sign up they can either join with a team and fill one of the empty team spaces or write their name under 'Current people without a team' and we will match them up ourselves.</div>
