Another achievement for Israeli technology: A group of students from the Technion won third place in an international competition for the development of unmanned aircraft for search and rescue of missing travelers. The competition was attended by 54 groups from around the world. The team flew to the competition with the support of the Ministry of Science and Technology as part of the Ministry's policy to support student and student delegations to science competitions abroad.
The AUVSI SUAS competition, held every year in Maryland, was attended by 54 groups of students and high school students from eight countries - the United States, Germany, India, Turkey, Poland, Canada, Israel and Romania. As part of the competition, which aims to encourage the development of unmanned aerial vehicles, each group is required to build unmanned aerial vehicles that fulfill defined tasks. This year the competition focused on the search and rescue of a missing traveler, and the planes that were built had to carry an autonomous air patrol system that could identify objects, avoid obstacles and more.

In the TAS group, shortening "Technion Air Systems", there are 18 students and students from the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering and the Technion's Viterbi Faculty of Electrical Engineering. The team developed and manufactured for the competition two 2.9 m wide wings (wingspan), 2.1 m long and 12.5 kg weight, and during the development work, the students performed ground and air analysis, simulations, tests and ground tests to achieve the best performance, With their own hands.
The aircraft developed by the group members can automatically take off, fly and land, manually and automatically detect ground targets located in the search area and beyond the boundaries of the sector, avoid static and dynamic obstacles, charge a point of delivery and deliver data in real time to the control center. The plane has many civilian applications such as the identification of accidents and road congestion, the identification of fire spots, the patrol along oil lines and electricity lines, and field photography for mapping.

Science Minister Ofir Akunis congratulated the Technion team and said, "Our brilliant students have done it again, the Israeli teams are doing well in many international competitions and are in first place, thus strengthening Israel's position in the world as a leader in innovation. Of Israeli scientists, our students and excellent researchers. "
Group leader Dror Artzi said after the competition that "the Technion is very much appreciated by all the organizers and participants in this prestigious competition."
"We have been impressed by the air industry's ability to develop such aircraft by students in just two semesters, and this is the fourth year we participate in the competition, and every year we develop a different platform and improve the systems," said captain Adi Topork.
The team members from the Technion are Adi Topor, Imre Tsror, Jason Ben Shitrit, Sigalit Grinberg, Daniel Joseph, Ohad Marcus, Ophir Milul, Roi Yehudai, Alexander Shendar, Shani Bejew, Jenna Brunner, Emanuel Ben Shushan, Maxim Solovay, Haim Ilya Brod, Eyal Ganis, Dan Ben David, Aviv Hasson, Netanel Even Danan and Dolev Simone. The project's moderator is Dror Artzi, and the project's practitioner is Yevgeny Gutnick.
