Russian schoolchildren win the "gold" robotic tournament in China

21
Another success of Russian schoolchildren in international competitions of scientific and technical nature. The Russian team, represented by the guys from the school at the University of Information Technologies, Mechanics and Optics (St. Petersburg), won gold medals at the Olympiad in Robotics in the Chinese capital. It's about the RobotChallenge-2018 competition.





Schoolchildren from St. Petersburg took part in such competitions for the first time and immediately became the best in the “Creativity” category.
They presented their development in the project "Pure Arctic", associated with the cleaning of the Arctic coast. Behind the Russians in this competition were teams from 30 participating countries.

Team mentor Igor Lisotsky noted that the project developed by Russian schoolchildren works on the basis of a neural network that helps work detect a barrel of fuel and lubricants without confusing it with another, possibly similar object.

Also at the Olympiad in robotics in Beijing, participants from different countries demonstrated developments that differed by moving along previously set coordinates, organized air races, showed the possibility of “social” communication. In total, about 1,5 thousands of different robots were presented.

The leaders in the competitions were teams from Southeast and East Asia.

    It is necessary to write in such articles "so far we have been able to win", because the current education system deceives children completely of knowledge, and discourages them from learning! And naturally, I congratulate our winners on their success! It's a pity, but soon such news will be very, very rare! They imposed a system of teaching on us to make children of "average people" with a minimum of knowledge!

      In fact, the number of gold medals at international competitions at our schoolchildren has only recently been growing, so you don’t need to sprinkle ashes on your head.

      How did you get to attack the exam and feel nostalgic: “how mind-blowing it was before!” This used to be when, eh? In the Times of the Queen, or what, when the ties were red? lol Maybe you should go to the mausoleum immediately with such slogans? wassat I studied in the center of Moscow ... just my graduation year from the 11th grade of a specialized economic school was the last before the exam. We all ... both smart and stupid, all the while laughing at those who were unlucky in the 10th and will have to surrender! Do you know why? Because in the new era of computers and other entertainment, 80% of students were spitting on KNOWLEDGE, which means they weren’t niche! What matters to people? Correct: BIG! yes There was no interest in science from the word at all, but those who really wanted it were another 20%, those enthusiasts or tyrant parents are still there, and with success, thank God, as we see, they are winning medals! Therefore, they did this reform, for equal ballistic access to higher education from all over the country, and not just money bags, and to ensure that schoolchildren learn something before the exam, otherwise. Because without the same BITS ANYWHERE! PS Soryan is boiling, there’s simply no strength to read about # all-education training sad

        It is worth thinking.

      Hi Pash soldier
      We have bright heads, happy sho, well done guys!
      It’s difficult to speak for a public education, all sorts of processes and reorganization, it’s not clear what will lead to. in the end, but there are high-class training centers where you can teach, let talent develop, such unique guys.
      If there were more of them, then our science would be calmer!
      The strength of the country is also competent, talented people.
      ANCIENT (Sergey Vitalievich)
      "we have been able to win so far," because the current education system completely deprives children of knowledge and discourages them from learning

      Of course there are doubts, but not everything is still defined. Boom to hope.

    Cultural ties with China are growing. My three boys who are engaged in classical dances almost went to a dance competition there, but something did not work out with the design of a passport for my wife. It seems that she didn’t put an age card on time, and everything fell through, because it took another month to complete the registration. recourse

    Not "won gold", but "won in the" Creativity "nomination.
    It is extremely indecent to mislead the headline of readers.

    The number of robots working at Russian enterprises needs to be increased both in absolute terms and in relative terms worldwide, otherwise sensible kids will run to work in countries where the topics of robotics development, implementation and operation are lively.

      And let me ask, for what purposes?
      And finally, what is "robot" in your understanding?
      As far as I remember, "automation of TP" and "robotization of production" are different things.

The Russian national team includes coach-leader, master of sports of international class Alexei Reshetnikov, athletes Ilya Zaikin, Evgeny Barchenkov and Artem Surovtsev. All athletes represent the center of children's technical creativity "Yunost".
    Ilya Zaikin became the absolute champion in the parachute class, Evgeny Barenchenkov was the best in the class of rotor plans. Artem Surovtsev took first place among the copy models. Teacher Alexei Reshetnikov at the World Championships in Poland won the silver medal in the parachute class and the bronze medal in the models for flight altitude.
    In total, the world championship brought together more than 300 rocket-modeling athletes from 24 countries. The largest teams were the USA (64 people), Poland (45), China (42) and Russia (36).

    For such successes to be greater, such guys should be encouraged both morally and financially ... If the state does not do this, then indifferent citizens, especially businessmen, should do it. Throw the idea to Grudinin.

        Because the above LGBT characters are activists in a bad sense of the word. And Grudinin many residents of this site are positioning as a real alternative to Putin. Here is one of the opportunities to demonstrate this ... To lead such talented children, to create conditions for them, so that when they grow up they will remain to work for the good of their country.
