SASA – Sapienza Technology Team

Faire: Rome

Maker: Sasa-sapienza aerospace student association

ERA is a planetary rover that participated in the European Rover Challenge, which simulates a Martian mission. Thanks to its robotic arm, it is capable of manipulating panels and collecting soil samples, while AI algorithms allow for autonomous execution of each operation. Additionally, the rover that will participate in the 2023 edition of the competition is presented, which in addition requires drilling and the use of a drone. Various prototypes developed internally by the team are also presented, including a group of sumobots: small rovers that compete to push others out of the ring.

Pollen Sprayer

Faire: Rome

Maker: IISS “Ven. Ignazio Capizzi” - Bronte ( CT)

The Pollen Sprayer is a particular electronic tank, equipped with nebulizers, which allows you to carry out the artificial pollination of plants with the aid of a drone. Designed for the pistachio plant, it can be used for any fruit tree in order to improve fruit setting and increase production. What makes the Pollen Sprayer unique is the fact that it can be adapted to any drone. In fact, given the high cost, the purchase of specific agricultural drones is not accessible to everyone.

Water Sampling Drone, campionamento delle acque.

Faire: Rome

Maker: IIS Marconi Galletti Einaudi Domodossola

Water Sampling Drone is an automatic surface water sampling system based on the STM32 microcontroller. The improved collection system allows you to manage multiple samplings during a single mission and thanks to a multi-parameter platform (pH, Temperature, Dissolved Oxygen, Conductivity, solid state detector for muon measurement) data on the quality of the water for each withdrawal point. The collected water is then stored in special test tubes and can be used for subsequent chemical-biological analyzes in the laboratory. The system is equipped with a GPS independent from the drone control one to allow the replicability of the sampling and the georeferencing of the data: the coordinates and the acquired data are memorized on a micro-SD and simultaneously sent via radio to a computer on the ground.
