We Will Provide Data and API for "Web & Car Hackathon 2017" Hosted by KDDI Research, Inc.

The Web & Car Hackathon aims at creating and developing of applications and services linking the Web and cars in the age of connected cars. The event will be held for two days from January 28 through January 29, 2017. A prize equivalent to 200,000 JPY will be granted as the grand award. Last year, the total of 11 teams and 50 designers/developers participated in the event. We are developing solutions to recognize the drivers’ driving conditions and to analyze the trend based on the driving information from CAN system and the human body information captured with sensing technology. With this technology, we are taking initiatives to provide optimum HMI for each driver. For this event, we use this technology and provide data obtained by determining the conditions of drivers based on biometric information. We hope the participants can use this data to create service contents which can generate new driver experience. Web & Car Hackathon 2017 (Japanese version only)
