TADHack-mini Uruguay took place on the 10th and 11th May (Tuesday and Wednesday) at the Universidad ORT Uruguay (Campus Centro) in the vibrant city of Montevideo. We are grateful for Universidad ORT Uruguay’s cooperation in making this event possible. As at every TADHack around the world the enthusiasm, creativity, and skills are world class. Because of the University rules we could only run during the week, a couple of developers actually took time from work for TADHack, amazing. Telestax sponsored TADHack Uruguay, and Locatrix was a partner.

Hack “Golazo!” by Juan Chomali (17 years old) and Francisco Camejo (19 years old) is an App for football / soccer fields reservations. It shows the football / soccer fields in a map and you can make a reservation through there. The field manager receives an SMS and can confirm or deny the reservation. The user receives a confirmation SMS. They were joint winners of the Telestax prize. This is a highly locally relevant application, like Tardy Support at TADHack Japan, it had all the Latin Americans in the audience wanting it.

Hack “POLLSTER APP” by Andres Canabarro, Sr. Miguel Ignacio Sica, and Herman Schenck: Do you want to launch any type of survey quickly and efficiently?

Another highly locally relevant hack, which had all the Latin Americans in the audience how quickly this service could be deployed in their location telco, or whether it could be deployed outside of their telco.

Answer guest ringing at you door using your mobile device – phone, tablet, etc. Only an internet connection is required. You talk and even open the door from any location – be it your garden on skiing slopes, or from the comfort of your armchair! The hack used a Raspberry Pi, and Telestax RestComm. They had lots of ideas on how this hack can be extended.
