# ERH Physical AI Hackathon

**36 hours of building. 50 engineers. Real hardware.**
​The ERH Physical AI Hackathon brings 50 of the sharpest builders in Europe to Dare Campus for a weekend of building physical AI. You get the keys to the hardware: robot arms, mobile platforms, sensors and compute, all on site and all yours for the weekend.
​**It starts Friday night.** On Friday 16 October we kick off with an evening meetup: intro talks, the challenge slides, a walkthrough of the hardware fleet, and time to meet people and form teams before building starts Saturday morning.
​Form a team on arrival or bring your own. Mentors from across the robotics ecosystem are on site. At the end, you demo what you built to a jury of founders, researchers and investors.
​**What you get**
- ​Friday night kickoff: meetup, intro talks and challenge reveal
- ​Full access to hardware
- ​On-site mentors for the full 48 hours
- ​Food, coffee, and a place to sleep (badly)
- ​A demo slot in front of the jury
​📍 Zurich, Switzerland
🗓️ Fri 16 October (kickoff evening) to Sun 18 October
🎟️ Applications open, spots are limited
