| Space Robotics Event for Students |
To encourage innovative solutions in the field of space robotics among students across the country, ISRO has planned to organize "ISRO Robotics Challenge-URSC 2024 (IRoC-U 2024)" with the tagline "Let's build a space robot."
The solutions provided by the students in IRoC-U 2024 have a higher probability of being incorporated into ISRO's future interplanetary robotics missions. IRoC-U 2024 is an engineering project where institutional teams build robots to compete in an extra-terrestrial inspired arena, performing tasks based on the real-life challenges faced by space robotics. It is being planned as a platform for co-development of technologies in the area of space robotics through organizing challenges.
