Join us for this FREE Event on Saturday, January 19th, 2019, at the Bartos Theater in the Wiesner Building at MIT for this year's Reality Virtually Hackathon Community Talks from 10AM to 3PM.

We have so many talented people visiting the MIT Media Lab that we want to make them available to the greater Boston developer community at large.

Public Expo

The Reality Virtually Public Expo will showcase the most cutting-edge developments in augmented reality and virtual reality created over a five day period by the 400 developers, designers, and AR/VR storytellers participating in the hackathon.
