“Interested” saves it to your list and sharpens your recommendations. “Going” marks your spot and opens the organizer’s page so you can grab the actual ticket.
A one-day Physical AI hackathon on a robotics campus in Zurich: twelve hours, two tracks, real hardware in the building. Eighty builders get one day at DARE Campus in Schlieren to make something that perceives its environment, decides what to do and does it, then demo it live to the people who do this for a living. DARE is a deep tech and robotics campus, not a conference room. Tethys Robotics builds underwater inspection drones there and FORGIS runs AI agents on factory equipment; their engineers are the mentors and the judges, and the maker space is down the hall. Two tracks run in parallel: Hardware puts teams on real robots, sensors and actuators, while Simulation needs nothing but a laptop and is judged on exactly the same rubric. Doors and check-in at 09:00, opening and team formation at 09:45, build from 10:30, tools down at 16:30, four-minute live demos and judging from 17:00, winners and drinks at 19:30. Teams are two to four people and most participants arrive alone. Free to attend, part of Swiss AI Weeks.
