The organizers are. "Bolt Brothers." and the Research Institute of Mechanics of Lomonosov Moscow State University
Recruitment runs through October 31, 2024 - https://spacecontest.ru/
The Space Robotics - Rovers competition invites schoolchildren to plunge into the world of engineering and advanced technologies. This year, participants will tackle an important task of future space exploration: "Collecting and analyzing minerals".
Teams will have to design and develop a space rover attachment capable of performing complex sample collection and primary analysis operations. But before that, they will need to pass two rounds of selection trials to qualify as space roboticists. In order to prepare the rovers for the new challenges of an extraterrestrial expedition participants will need the following skills: 3D modeling, circuitry, Arduino and Python programming, and working with Linux/Robot Operating System/OpenCV.
