Sensored Beyond X 2026
Presented by The Electronics Club (TEC) | GraVITas '26 Flagship Event
Event Description
SENSORED returns as TEC's iconic Gravitas event, continuing a legacy of 11 years of hands-on innovation and technical exploration. This immersive 18-hour experience brings together technology enthusiasts, aspiring creators, and problem solvers to explore the world of sensors, microcontrollers, and IoT.
The event begins with a 10-hour hands-on workshop where participants will learn the fundamentals of sensors, their interfacing techniques, and their applications in real-world systems. Participants will get practical exposure to microcontroller-based development using platforms such as ESP32 and will learn how sensors can be integrated with microcontrollers to collect, process, and respond to data.
The experience then moves into an 8-hour hackathon, where participants will apply the concepts learned during the workshop to build innovative sensor-based solutions. Working together in teams of 3 to 4, participants will brainstorm ideas, identify real-world problems, develop prototypes, and demonstrate their solutions.
One of the key highlights of the event is that participants will get to take their completed project with them. This gives them a tangible outcome of their learning and allows them to continue experimenting and exploring IoT technologies even after the event concludes.
