Czechs among the world’s best. They will compete for a million dollars
Czech engineers and their startup, who are the best in the world, entered the prestigious autonomous helicopter competition for the first time. The motive is not only money, but also help to firefighters and paramedics. This year’s final, where 14 teams will compete, took place on April 11 and 12. And out of 210 teams from all over the world, a team of scientists from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering (FEL) of CTU and the startup Fly4Future, which they founded at the school seven years ago for the development of drones, also made their way into it.
CTU students practice flying drones in the future Panattoni Business Park Kladno II
An old industrial hall intended for demolition on a brownfield in the area of the former Poldi Kladno serves as a unique test laboratory for the extreme flight conditions of autonomous drones. The Czech team from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering CTU and the Fly4Future group are training here for the prestigious Autonomous Champions League race in Abu Dhabi.
The team of FEE CTU and Fly4Future will fight for the title in the “Champions League” of autonomous drones in Abu Dhabi
The team of the Multi-robot Systems Group (MRS) from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering of the Czech Technical University in Prague and Fly4Future successfully qualified for the prestigious Autonomous Racing League (A2RL) finals in Abu Dhabi. The technologically advanced autonomous drone race, organized by ASPIRE and the Drone Champions League, is one of the world’s largest competitions of its kind: its winners will share a total prize of US$1 million.
It looks like a drone, but it’s not a drone. Czech robots fly in Canada and South America. Also because they think for themselves
Article about Fly4Future and advanced robotics developed in the Czech Republic, particularly focusing on robots that resemble drones but are not actually drones. These robots, originating from research at the Czech Technical University, are designed with autonomous thinking capabilities. They are already operating in Canada and South America, marking a successful transition from academic research into practical applications. The technology exemplifies a rare case in the Czech Republic where university research is successfully applied to real-world business scenarios.
