Journey Radar
PRIZE POOL
Note: Projects can be submitted in Polish or English.
Delays and disruptions are an everyday challenge for millions of public transport passengers. Too often, information about these issues arrives too late, is incomplete, or scattered across multiple sources. Without a fast and consistent flow of data between operators, dispatch systems, and passengers, travelers are left relying on fragmented updates — turning trip planning into little more than guesswork.
The impact is most visible when every minute counts: on trains, buses, and city transit. While modern technology makes it possible to gather information in real time, the real challenge lies in integrating, verifying, and delivering it in a way that truly supports passengers.
The question is: how can passengers stay one step ahead of disruptions? How can we give them the insights they need to make better decisions, respond faster to changes, and just maybe... save more than a few missed appointments?
CAPTURE THE FLAG
CTF
PRIZE POOL
Note: Projects can be submitted in Polish or English.
Capture The Flag (CTF) events are cybersecurity competitions where you will be tasked with solving puzzles and hacking! Think of it as a playground for hackers – you will have access to a set of challenges spanning categories like: reverse engineering, cryptography, forensics, web application security – and others. You will be searching for what we call ‘flags’ – special pieces of text that indicate the solutions.
The theme for the competition is the year 2084 – a spin on George Orwell’s 1984.
The system wants you to obey, the Ministry of Truth wants you silent, and only those who resist can hope to regain freedom… Together with your fellow rebels, you will be attempting to defeat the system – before it can defeat you.
Vive la résistance! We’re waiting for you!
