HackVerse: Into the Web

HackVerse: Into the Web is a Spider-Man-themed, story-driven hackathon organized by the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society (IEEE RAS), VIT Chennai Student Chapter, as part of TechnoVIT 2026. It is a 24-hour event structured into three progressive sprints: Web-Slinger Sprint for rapid prototyping, Spider-Sense Sprint for competitive coding challenges, and Multiverse Sprint for building a functional, deployment-ready product with real-world applicability.

Participants are encouraged to build in any domain, including AI, robotics, fintech, cybersecurity, and Web3. The event emphasizes open innovation with no fixed problem statements, domains, or technology stacks, allowing teams to build what they believe in. Teams consist of 3-5 members with diverse strengths.
