about this event
Humanoid Hack Singapore. Sat 31 October to Sun 1 November 2026, Singapore. Hosted by Orboh, Inc. In collaboration with Acacia College.
About This Hackathon: The Singapore edition of Humanoid Hack, Orboh's humanoid hackathon series (Tokyo Vol.1 in May 2026, Vol.2 in July 2026). Over two days, teams build a working application on real Unitree G1 humanoid robots. VLA (Vision-Language-Action), teleoperation, motion control, LLM integration, or something we have not thought of: bring your idea and ship a working prototype on the spot. This hackathon has a selection process. Everyone registers individually here on Luma, then applies together as a team.
Event Details: Date: Sat 31 October to Sun 1 November 2026. Venue: Singapore. The exact address is shared with registered guests. Hardware: Unitree G1. Number of units to be announced. Two teams share one robot. Size: 6 teams of 4 to 6 members. Theme: Applications on the G1. Anything goes. Day 2 afternoon is open to the public with a separate free viewer ticket.
How to Participate: Step 1. Register individually here on Luma. Step 2. Join our Discord and form a team of 4 to 6 members: https://discord.com/invite/fDAWmeTV6f. Step 3. Apply as a team. The application form and the deadline will be announced here and on Discord. Selected teams receive Hacker tickets. Registrants who are not selected are offered a free Day 2 Viewer ticket. Note: at least one member of each team needs a machine that runs Ubuntu (PC, WSL2 or VM).
Who Should Apply: Engineers who understand the current limits of humanoid and Physical AI technology. People who want to solve real problems with humanoids. Engineers in robotics, ML or humanoid development who want hands-on time with a real robot. Startup founders, researchers and students are welcome. Applicants from outside Singapore are welcome. No robotics experience is required. Vibe coding is perfectly fine, and non-engineers are welcome.
