You have 9 months to prepare, I have already begun to do my mower. The task is simple: to create artificial intelligence in the time needed to create the natural! The contest should be held at the address: Moscow region, Chekhov district, settlement Mescherskoye, SNT Dubrava-2. Anyone who dreams of visiting this event undertakes to comply with all 10 commandments and honor the criminal and administrative code. The prize fund must be “fatty” over these 9 months. While this is a modest 10,000 rubles. Your humble servant, who, probably, will not leave you indifferent to you, dear reader.

If you have long dreamed about the opportunity to try yourself in robotics - this is the very moment, register on the website (www.robogazon.ru), collect a robot (or team) or assemble a robot with a team, stop writing dreams, go cycling and bylocking, make mistakes and step on the same rake, but do it now!

I will be glad to fight with you next summer. And let the strongest or the one who is much higher, you hear ...

It is likely that this topic is very interesting for schoolchildren and students. Remembering myself in these years, I understand that a situation is possible when there is an idea for a project, but there is no material and technical basis for its implementation.
Register on the site, send your projects and describe your needs. Interesting projects will be supported. Initially, I am ready to help out of my personal funds, but I hope for the support of like-minded people. In such matters it is impossible to fully rely on the state or big business, it seems to me that it is important that mutual assistance and fraternity are important.
