Drone Assembling

Develop a fertilizer spraying/dispersal unit with automatic refilling capability.

Drone Assembling

Develop a node/UAV that allows for condition assessment of oil pipelines.

Drone Assembling

Building a courier drone to deliver medical supplies to remote areas. Participants shall design a drone capable of automatically delivering medical supplies to places that are difficult or dangerous to reach by transportation, ensuring quick and efficient delivery of needed medications.

Drone Artificial Intelligence, Drone Electronic Engineering

UAV self-diagnostics: analyzing vibration data, determining vibration types, their frequencies, amplitudes, and other parameters that can indicate the state of the vehicle, predict possible breakdowns or malfunctions, and recommend measures to prevent accidents.

Drone Artificial Intelligence, Drone Electronic Engineering

Automatic crop condition assessment using a drone that transmits information about areas requiring fertilization to a ground platform to perform the respective operations.

Drone Artificial Intelligence, Drone Electronic Engineering

Develop a system for traffic situation visual recognition that allows a rover to drive autonomously on public roads, recognizing road markings, road signs, traffic signals, pedestrians, and other vehicles. Based on the information obtained, the system shall determine whether the rover can continue moving or whether it should stop.
Develop a similar system for a drone, to monitor the traffic situation from above, to determine and predict possible dangerous situations in the movement of other vehicles that the rover at ground level is unable to see. Based on the data obtained, it should monitor the traffic situation and identify violators of traffic rules.

Drone Artificial Intelligence, Drone Electronic Engineering

Developing a robotic complex (mobile platform + manipulator) to perform production and logistics tasks at industrial enterprises.
The complex shall provide the possibility of independent automatic performance of tasks on analyzing, sorting, and moving units, parts, and blanks at processing and assembly plants and warehouse complexes (auxiliary worker).
Participants shall develop the complex's structural elements, algorithms of operation and selection of designated parts in the warehouse, automatic loading/unloading, and transportation to the shop for further work.

Drone Assembling

Develop a retractable landing gear for a UAS with a takeoff weight of up to 7 kg with specified contours Tasks:
* Choose the landing gear placement scheme.
* Determine the place of installation, taking into account the location of other assemblies.
* Determine the kinematic scheme of retraction and release
* Select wheels from the provided product range.
* Model the attachment points, retraction and release rods (using the provided servos), struts and shock absorbers.
