ATİLAB Technology Platform Returned with Awards at TEKNOFEST

While Türkiye came second in the Unmanned Underwater Systems Competition, Türkiye came second in the Health category of TÜBİTAK 2242 University Students Research Project Competitions. Türkiye came third in the Robotics Applications in Industry Competition.

Students from different countries meet in the same projects

International students studying at universities in Turkey develop joint projects by combining their academic knowledge with teammates from different disciplines.

The team includes students from countries such as Yemen, Uzbekistan, Syria, Somalia, Chad, Malaysia, Sudan, Egypt and Indonesia, as well as Palestine, especially Gaza. Students working in fields such as robotics, artificial intelligence, electronics, software, mechanical design and autonomous systems take part in the design, production and testing processes of the projects.

ATİLAB's TEKNOFEST Rankings from Past to Present

The platform's rankings in competitions also extend to previous years. In 2024, it came second in Türkiye at TEKNOFEST Robolig University and Above Level, and in 2025, it came first in Türkiye in the Unmanned Ground Vehicle Competition and second in Türkiye at TEKNOFEST Robolig High School Level.

Great interest in the stand

At the ATİLAB stand established in TEKNOFEST Southeast, projects and systems developed in different engineering fields were introduced to the visitors. Unmanned Ground Vehicle, Robotaxi, Unmanned Underwater Systems, Underwater Rocket, Advanced Autonomous Systems, Air Defense Systems, Unmanned Marine Vehicle, Robotic Technologies in Industry, Robolig and TÜBİTAK 2242 Health Project were exhibited at the stand. Visitors examined the systems and received information from team members about the working principles and development processes of the projects.

“Team spirit and problem-solving skills are the basis of our success”

Emre Gürbüz, one of ATİLAB Technology Platform Managers, made the following statements in his evaluation after the degrees obtained:

"We have teams competing in different fields at high school and university levels within ATİLAB. We compete with much more modest means against our rivals who compete with the well-equipped workshops of technical universities and strong sponsor support. What carried our young people to this success was team spirit, collaboration discipline and problem-solving skills. I congratulate all our students and advisors who contributed."
