(KZN.RU, September 4). Students of IT-School of the KFU became laureates of the All-Russian Robotics Competition “Agrorobofestival”. It was held in the children's techno-park “Kvantorium” in Almetyevsk in the framework of the VI All-Russian Conference of Youth Innovation Creativity Centers.

Young engineers and inventors up to the age of 18 presented innovative developments in the automation and robotization of the agro-industrial complex in five areas: Smart Greenhouse, Smart Farm, Smart Beds, Agro-robot, and Quadcopter.

One of the winners of the contest was the project “Hand of Help” by a pupil of the 9th grade Ildan Petrov. The project is based on the automation of lifting equipment.
