Campaign successfully funded on: 10 Jun,2015
This project has been successfully funded with $17,530 (117%)
Introduction
The ROV competition is an international competition challenge students to design and build underwater robots to
tackle mission tasks based on the real world.Teams
from all over the world with different ages are supposed to compete in a local
level and then into international level.The
main competition goalrequires students to think of themselves as “entrepreneurs” and transform
their teams into companies that manufacture, market, and sell “products.”
In addition to engineering theirROVs which make them ready and qualified to work after
graduation in ROV field jobs
After the finals of the local competition, there were two teams nominated as Explorer teams, university students, and two teams as Rangers, school students. These four teams will represent Egypt and Arab world in the international competition in Canada, June 2015.
And this isn’t gonna happen without your support to cover theirs travelling expenses as follows:
Every 7500 $ will cover only the expenses of one team to travel. They need as a total budget 30000 $ for the whole 4 teams. The first 7500 $ will allow the 1st explorer team to travel and the 2nd 7500$ will allow the 1st rangers team to travel. The 3rd 7500$ will allow the 2nd explorer team to travel and the last 7500$ will allow the 2nd rangers team to travel.
