This note is to acknowledge not only
the people mentioned here but each

in place.
This event would not have been
possible without our volunteer team.
A bunch of young college students
might be bunking their classes to get
our website up, spreading the word
out since the inception of freedom
hack. Only one word for these folks,
Amazing job.
Finally, we express our gratitude to all
the hackers who came to our office
from places and filled our office with
millions and billions Joules of energy
like never before.
And last but not the least a big Thank
You goes to every folk out there who
tweeted for our hashtag and liked/
shared our posts on facebook. And,
every person who spread the word
for us, convinced a friend to
participate, rode kms to hack,

for an open world and for Aaron
Swartz.

Executive Summary
InMobi organized the Bangalore
chapter of Aaron Swartz memorial
hackathon series happening world-
wide. The event was held on 8th and
9th feb, 2014. Hackathon was open to
both InMobians and outside people
as well. It was a 24 hour hackathon
started on 10:00 am on 8th Feb and
ended after 24 hours followed by
demonstration of hacks and prize
ceremony.
Event received registrations from
close to 160 teams . Based on the
hackers' credentials and the abstract
of their hack, we shortlisted 47 teams.
Finally, total 41 teams comprising of
118 hackers came to hack their prizes
in InMobi premises for 24 hours. The
teams represent a very good mix of
working professionals and students.
All the hacks were judged on three
criterion; completeness of the hack,
novelty of the idea and the impact it
can create. We had two hackmaster
rounds before the final demonstra-
tions, where the hackmasters went to
every team for mentoring them. This
was again on the basis of three
criterion; how ready the hack is, how
demo able the hack is and is the hack
presentable in 5 minutes of
demonstration time given.

Freedom Hack also had three very
insightful talks on topics; writing
beautiful code, how to take your hack
to the next level and Aaron Swartz
the Hacktavist. Further details on
speakers, jury and hackmasters can
be found in coming sections of this
report.
Winner team, PowerTrain was second
year students from PESIT, Bangalore
and took home a cash reward of INR
50,000. First runner up team was
Miners having members from InMobi
and Flipkart and won cash reward of
INR 30,000. Second runner up team
had a member from Yahoo and a
college student. They won a cash
reward of INR 20,000.The list of all the
hacks including the winning hacks can
be found in the last section of this
report.
The website for the event was created
with the announcement of event.
Besides, a social media plan was very
important to reach out the people
effectively and efficiently. We created
a Facebook page and a Twitter
Handle for the event. The report also
mentions the social media statistics.
Many brilliant ideas were brought to
life during the hackathon but this is
just the start of journey for those
hacks. We wish many of them reach
to the stage where they can touch
and impact lots of people around.

Event
Coverage

Feedback Report
All the hackers were sent a feedback form after the event. They were asked
simple five questions having one open ended question. The results of the
survey are as below.
I was properly
communicated and
reminded of the
structure of the event.
This was something like WOW
Participants had option to choose more than one option.

Feedback Report
Hackers’ Testimonials
Learnt how new college kids
are thinking and doing great
things. Also talk on Aaron
Swartz gave me more idea
about that guy.
Best thing, in an informal chat,
the CTO shares what he learnt
from this event, which means
that people there are all about
learning and exchanging ideas.
How easily accessible the Hack
Masters were! I could easily walk
up to them and ask them to
review my hack or ask them to
clear some of my doubts! Very
impressive.
A lot of HACKERS were
impressed by our idea of
PI-HACK and we even got a
deal!!!
Looking forward to many
more such events from
INMOBI.
It was an awesome event.
Everything memorable. It
made me relive my college
days.
I rode ~40kms on Saturday just
to make it and I found it
absolutely worthy of my time.
"FreedomHack", pretty COOL.
Next Hackathon, will come up
with something really creative.
Opportunity to know what
can be done and interaction
with market techies and future
techies.

Lessons Learned
We learned many lessons from our
first external hackathon. We are
confident to take care of these
insights and learnings in our next
edition.
A Short Preparation Time
The date for the Freedom Hack was
finalized only 4-5 weeks before the
event. We learned that organizing this
level of event require a detail level
preparation. Due to inadequate time,
we also lacked outreaching to more
folks out there.
Less Participation from Women
By analyzing the hackers'
demographics and other social media
statistics, we find very less women
participation in the event. We are
thinking of the ways to improve this
next time.
Participation and Collaboration with
Tech Companies and Universities
Collaborating with other tech
companies and universities is a very
effective way to reach out the right
folks and getting some of the best
ideas on the stage. We have made a
note of this for our next edition.
Besides these, there are so many
areas where we can be very close to
perfection. If you have any suggestion
or just an idea, then we are listening.

PERECO- Personal Emergency Response Ecosystem A unique and innovative
solution that facilitates the minimization of loss of human life in the face of
mishaps or life-threatening circumstances. It uses unique predictive analysis
techniques to determine whether the individual is currently present in a
hazardous or potentially hazardous environment and therefore suggests
immediate evasive measures that ensure that the concerned individual
manages to relocate himself to a predetermined safe-zone. The system also
has a live-tracking, support and updating feature to ensure that his/her
whereabouts are reported in real-time and strives to ensure that proper entity
management protocols are put in place and practiced thereby resulting in an
efficient and effective method of secure exfiltration of the entity from the said
undesirable situation. However, if the entity finds himself needy of external
support services, our solution introduces complete automation in the stages of
detection, reporting and response to the emergency situation, thereby
eliminating any manual latencies involved in the rescue operation ensuring
that the victim is rescued and transported to the nearest emergency care
facility within the crucial “Golden Hour” in which the survivability of the victim
is maximum. Also a manual override and enable option is provided for our
solution for the user to make use of in any other unforeseen situation.

Targeting 3.0
Targeting has been synonymous with
advertising since the advent of
advertising. Today, with precise and
trackable targeting used by mobile
and digital advertising, targeting is
the core of a successful advertising
strategy. Most of the advertising
strategies focus on finding the right
audience through demographic, geo
and other such targeting methods .
However, as we develop deeper
understanding of the mobile users,
Ad targeting has gone beyond just
demographics. Finding the right user
at the right time – or at a point in the
purchase-decision funnel – has always
been an imperative of marketing.
Within social communities like
facebook, users provide demographic
information, interests, friends and
family connections. . This stored
information allows advertisers to
create specific target groups and
individualize their advertisements. The
advantage for users is that they can
see ads that appeal to them.

Given the state of medical facilities in
rural India and the poor patient is to
doctor ratio we need to look at
alternative and optimized technolo-
gies that ensure emergency response
and an optimal connection of doctors
to patients. The product we aim to
develop in this hackathon is an open
source Interactive Voice Response
(IVR) system, wherein the patients
would pass through a brief dialogue
system that supports natural
language queries and requests. The
input speech would be converted to
text and analyzed, and depending on
the contents would connect the
patient to the most optimal doctor as
well as medical supply like medicines,
stretchers etc. via a user/maintainer
curated database. The most optimal
solution would consider metrics like
emergency of the call, the doctor's
schedule, the shortest distance within
which medical help could be provided
and similar factors. In case of major
diseases and epidemics, emergency
advice to be followed would be
dispensed to the caller's number in
the form of a text message. It would
also serve as a medical assistant for
doctors practicing medicine in villages
across the globe. It would essentially
attempt to automate the whole
process of acquiring medical help,

List of All Hacks
knowing nearby hospitals and alerting
the doctors about the arrival of
patient according to his/her schedule.
The principal target audience of this
product is the illiterate or semi-literate
segment of the society as it would
simplify and smoothen the whole
procedure of getting medical help by
just answering few simple questions.

For an advertising company it is really
important to send the right kind of

kind we propose a learning
mechanism to know the user better.
The idea is extended as a mobiles
application which takes into account

data and separates them into various
categories. This can solve the purpose
of the user as to know himself by
categorizing applications into games,
food, shop, etc. There could be an
extended layer of categorization.
Frequency of visiting and application
can determine which applications to
keep and which to remove.
An external server can tap the above
useful information (though it is
practically static in nature for most of
the users) and can post Ads based on
analysis done on this data.
The application bring a dynamic
feature which records user response
of the whether the user appreciates
the Ad posted and refine the Ad
posting the next time. Example: One
can guess if the user is a male or
female based on the user
appreciation for a motorcycle or
handbags Ad.

semester, or to sell our old books.
There's also a case when we wish to
exchange our books, ie, in first year
when we switch from Physics cycle to
Chem cycle, or vice versa.
This is where Bookswap comes into
play. It is a web app which connects
these buyers and sellers on campus,
thus making it easier for anyone to
buy, sell or exchange their books. Our
goal is to make an app with a simple
interface, which does one thing and
does it best.

Fizno
fizno.com: the knowledge box
A lot of valuable knowledge is
available freely on the internet, in the
form of both reference material
(wikipedia, openstreetmap,
stackoverflow, ...) and educational
material (Khan Academy, Coursera,
Open Yale Courses, British Council:
learn English, ...).
The fizno Knowledge Box packs all
this knowledge into a physical object,
which emits a wifi signal, through
which people can freely access the
top 1000 Gb of human knowledge. It
can be placed in a rural area, acts as a
bittorrent seed, and can help
overcome internet censorship by
totalitarian governments.
Under the hood, FIZno relies on
docker and bittorrent to make it easily
clonable and reproducable."

G.O.D (Gang Of Devices)
This hack idea was aimed at solving
the problem of content sharing/
syncing between a group of devices
owned by a user. Due to multiple
devices being owned by a user,
content is scattered across and hence
its not easy to get a unified view of all
the data.
Hence we created this hack where a
user can create a private cloud of
storage backed by its own devices
with the advantages of data residing
on his own devices at all times along
with seamless access of content from
all the devices.
It was a type of p2p application
designed to work on LAN as well on
internet.
