TreeHacks Hackathon

Jason Alouda, Ayush Singla, and Rita Tlemcani demo their Bicicletta project at the TreeHacks hackathon. Bicicletta is a hardware hack that enables cyclists to use pedal power to charge their devices while simultaneously calculating their carbon footprint. Each year over 1,000 college students attend TreeHacks – a hackathon held at Stanford Univiersity where students compete for 36 hours straight to produce "hacks" that could lead to the next big innovation in areas such as health, safety, and awareness.
