Aims

The Horniman Museum and Gardens are to host Hackathon to challenge the brightest minds in technology with the goal of developing a tailored environmental micro electronic control system for coral research that creates the same temperature, daytime photoperiod and moonlight in the Horniman's aquarium system with the actual temperature and photoperiods found in Suva, Fiji to see if we can replicate the environmental cues to trigger coral spawning right here in the UK.

The Hackathon community will be directly supporting a very worthwhile biology and conservation project.
