“The Boat Racing" competition is designed for students aged 13-17. This event encourages young individuals and technology enthusiasts to apply their STEAM skills, experiment with artificial intelligence, explore the working principles of future technologies, and develop engineering experience along with independent thinking abilities to achieve results. Participants in this competition will design a boat model, navigate it on the water surface during the race, and pass through obstacles to reach the finish line.
Age limit 13-17 (those who will not turn 18 by December 1, 2025, and those who turn 13 years old by November 1, 2025)
Coming soon
2 students and 1 mentor
Developed skills
"Boat Racing" technology competition aims to enhance the knowledge and skills of secondary school students in the fields of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics). Within the framework of the competition, participants design, build, and operate a boat model capable of moving on water, supported by artificial intelligence technologies. Throughout this process, students gain hands-on experience in applied engineering, programming, and problem-solving.
The primary objective of the competition is to foster 21st-century skills such as analytical and critical thinking, creativity, research, and teamwork, while engaging students in solving real-life technical and engineering challenges. Participants are required to independently control their boat models through test scenarios and successfully reach the finish line.
