Hi! Thanks for the topic suggestion.

To help us prepare for the hackathon event it would be great to prepare a quick 30-60 sec overview of the topic to introduce it to the group on the day and seek interested collaborators. You can use the below prompts to help with this:

What is the headline idea?

What is the (realistic) outcome being aimed for during the event?

What types of contributions would be welcomed (i.e. specific skills, tasks)?
