01
Where it started
Hackathons demand a resilient, working system in 24–48 hours, plus a product story that convinces judges from Google, NVIDIA and venture firms.

What I owned

03
How I built it
- Streamed live voice and video to the Gemini Live API over bidirectional WebSockets with sub-second responses.
- Prioritised the core interactive loop over feature creep, so judges felt the product immediately.
- Cached tool responses and built offline fallbacks, so flaky venue Wi-Fi could never break the live demo.
