Technologies to Use: Utilize computer vision, AI, and 3D technology to create a seamless virtual try on experience.


AI Hackathon Submission Requirements

Remember: Focus on demonstrating the value of your project and its potential to make a difference. Prioritize completing a smaller project successfully over attempting a larger project that may not possible to complete within scope. A well-executed, smaller-scale solution is more impactful than an incomplete, larger project.

If your project is selected in the first round, you'll be invited to participate in the in-person hackathon event.
