Kazakhstan will be represented by a team of two landscape robots at the Robocon-2013 contest that will be held in Vietnam, the project’s manager Nurlan Karimzhan told Tengrinews.kz. The contest’s subject changes every year and this time it is called The Green Planet. The task for each robot is to plant improvised plants. For that purpose the students of the International University of Information Technologies made two robots with automatic and manual control. The manual robot will have to collect the plants and transfer them to the second robot that will place them on specified spots. The spots are located on the green circle symbolizing the Earth. In the end the automatic robot will have to catapult one plant to the “Moon”: a metal disc near the “Earth”. It will have three catapulting attempts. This will be the second time that Kazakhstan students will take part in the contest. Back in 2012 they did not win anything. The contest was held in Hong Kong. Robocon-2013 will be held on August 19.
