Ukrainian schoolboy from Ivano-Frankivsk has developed a new drone for the Armed Forces (video)

The drone will conduct intelligence and report the sappers of explosive devices that need to be disposed of. 16-year-old Yuri Turmuk has developed a new unmanned aerial vehicle, which is intended to help the military look for mines. The head of Ivano-Frankivsk Roman Martsinkov told about it on his channel on Telegram. The eleventh grade student of the Natural and Mathematical Lyceum in Ivano-Frankivsk has decided to make a device to find mines.

Initially, Yuri Turm tried to assemble a land car, but after a number of experiments, the ideas of a quadcopter printed on a 3D printer came. It was this device that presented the new moon on the IV All-Ukrainian Steam-Fest, where teachers and students show interesting projects. According to Yuri Tumir, the drone should fly along the route, which the operator is programming in a special application (it only needs to be developed) and inspect the territory with cameras.

The built -in computer system is intended to notice explosive devices, determine their size and type, indicate coordinates. Opening the program on your smartphone or tablet, the sapper will see the location of the mines, find out what they are, and will be ready for disposal. Last year, the Steam festival acquired an all-Ukrainian scale. In 2022, hundreds of participants from all regions of Ukraine registered to the West, some even came from temporarily occupied territories.

They presented their projects in the fields of natural sciences, technologies, engineering, mathematics, art. To accept all participants, the organizers hold an event in an online format. Earlier, Ukrainian student Igor Klimenko received $ 100,000 for mine work. He invented a "quadcopter detector of mines", which should help the sappers and the military. In fact, it is a drone with a built -in metal detector and a program that indicates the place of hazardous places on the map.
