About the challenge

Our goal is for you to push the frontier of spatial intelligence. We are looking for two types of projects: product-based or research-based.

Product-based projects should present a polished demo of a product that solves a meaningful spatial intelligence problem. We’re looking for thoughtful design, strong execution, and a compelling demonstration of real-world impact.

Research-based projects should apply the scientific method to propose a novel hypothesis or method, conduct rigorous experiments to evaluate its effectiveness, and present the findings in a clear and accessible manner.

Both types of projects will be assessed primarily on the novelty and creativity of the idea, as well as the quality of execution.

We will provide example construction video datasets and GPU credits to support your work. However, you are not limited to our data or to construction-specific problems — we encourage you to explore any ideas related to spatial intelligence.

All submissions are due Sunday at 10:00 AM.

We’re excited to see what you build. Best of luck to all teams!

Requirements

Each team must submit:

  • A GitHub repository

  • A detailed README explaining your approach, process, and product or research findings

  • A 3–5 minute video demonstrating your product or presenting your research

  • [optional] PDF report (max 3 pages)

Do not uplaod Ironsite Data to github repositories or any other public place.

We will announce the finalists at 12:15pm, and they will be required to present in the startup shell for final placements and prizes.
