Robots made by Armenian students can extinguish fire and detect mines

YEREVAN, OCTOBER 10, ARMENPRESS. “AYB” high schoolrobotics group students, who can bring their projects into life in the first workshop-laboratory “Fab lab” in the region, have already created robots able to solve different problems, which were demonstrated outside “AYB” school. Student of “AYB” school Ashot Margaryan introduced a robot to the journalists, the main function of which is to pass through a labyrinth, find the source of fire and extinguish it. “The labyrinth is the model of a house, and finding the source of the fire, the robot must extinguish it and return to its starting point”, “Armenpress” reports, the boy said, adding that it is possible to create a bigger robot that can be used by fire brigades without risking human lives. “AT present, I am working over a drone. We invent our algorithmfordrones which are quite new algorithms”, Ashot Margaryan said.

Nane Arshakyan designed a line follower robot, which, according to her, can be used in military operations as a mine detector.
