XI All-Russian Underwater Robotics Competition in Vladivostok
On May 10-11, 2025, Vladivostok will host the XI All-Russian Underwater Robotics Competition
This is a team competition in which participants have to design their own underwater robot in advance and perform special tasks in the pool at the event.
All competition tasks are based on existing research projects and tasks that utilize underwater robots or developments in underwater robotics.
This year's mission will involve exploring shipwreck sites, installing special sensors for long-term monitoring, and collecting water and DNA samples to determine the presence of certain species. Teams will also have to perform maintenance work on offshore wind farms and monitor the impact of these farms and solar panels on the living organisms present in the study area. Work will also continue this season to build and deploy robotic buoys for ocean exploration tasks.
