RIT Croatia team won The Dubrovnik Hackathon 2018!
The 4th Dubrovnik Hackathon took place at Hotel Royal
Princess in Dubrovnik from April 14-15, organized by DURA Agency, with the
support of RIT Croatia and University of Dubrovnik.
Six teams participated in this year’s Hackathon that lasted
for 36 hours.
We have the pleasure of announcing that the team that won
were RIT Croatia students from our Zagreb campus (Ana Perić, Matko Piškor, Lehady
Sani-Agatha, Matej Gadžo, Boris Fjorović), mentored by professor Andrej Šarić. They
had a great idea which was a traffic solution for the city of Dubrovnik using
machine learning. They were able to prove that implementing that solution is
possible. „I am very proud of them, they listened to all the advice they were
given and they were able to win their first Hackathon. All teams did very well
and I believe that this was an amazing experience for all of them ", said
professor Šarić.
Besides the winning team, there were two more teams that
comprised of our students from the Dubrovnik campus, and one of those teams was
a mix of alumni and current students.
Congratulations to the winning team and to all participants
for showcasing their fantastic and innovative ideas!
