Climate change is a pressing issue that affects us on a global scale. This is why we at KNX Association want to join forces with you to create a more sustainable world, by presenting KNX solutions that contribute to a shift in energy efficiency in smart homes, buildings and cities. For this reason, we are opening applications to the first KNX Hackathon.
Why a KNX Hackathon?
We are set on making the world a more sustainable place using the KNX technology. That is why we are looking for new practices that prove that KNX makes an impact in saving energy and reducing carbon footprint emissions. We present 5 different challenges to tackle with KNX, for each of the five challenges, a money prize will be given to the winning team:
- Challenge 1: Smartest configuration of a product to save energy
